Getting Wise Help
Jan 02, 2021
Dear Parent,
If your child is attachment challenged and you are seeking treatment, it is unwise to allow the therapist and the child to work alone in a room, or over the computer camera nowadays. Parents are the best therapists for their own children. Be in the room or at the computer with them.
You are the major healing force in the life of your child. Be part of the treatment.
Love matters,
Ce
