Are autism, ADHD, and disruptive behavior the Big Three concerns for child mental health these days? I was looking at the website for an Ann Arbor MI-based agency that markets itself by invoking these concerns. Certainly these have been topics we have been addressing consistently in our monthly consultations, too. By the way, I really like the description used on the Sunfield site for Parent Child Interaction Therapy. -gw

Parenting is not always easy, particularly when a child’s temperament negatively affects his or her ability to adapt to the demands of daily life. Parents of children with behavioral difficulties, often experience increased frustration and higher levels of depression, particularly mothers. Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is an empirically-supported treatment approach designed to help parents manage problem behaviors while building a stronger relationship with their child.
