Begin Your Path to Healing with Mindwell.
At Blossom Works Therapy, we understand how painful and confusing it can feel when your relationship with your child becomes strained. Maybe there’s been a growing disconnect. You might feel ignored, yelled at, or unsure how to respond when your child shuts down, pushes back, or acts out. You may be trying everything you know yet something still feels off. You’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Child Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) is a powerful, relationship-based approach that helps restore connection and trust between caregivers and their children. Often used alongside child counseling or Play Therapy, CPRT is designed to strengthen the parent-child bond by building emotional awareness, improving communication, and reshaping patterns of interaction that may be contributing to conflict or distance.
In CPRT, the focus isn’t just on the child or the parent it’s on the relationship between them. Our therapists guide you through structured sessions that are both educational and relational. You’ll learn how to engage your child in intentional, age-appropriate ways that support emotional growth and promote a sense of safety and trust. We believe parents are essential to the healing process, and CPRT empowers you with tools, strategies, and ongoing support to be an active part of your child’s journey.
This therapy may be especially helpful for families navigating anxiety, trauma, adoption or foster transitions, attachment difficulties, hyperactivity, mood challenges, or oppositional behaviors. Whether your child is showing emotional distress, behavioral struggles, or simply seems disconnected, CPRT can help rebuild the emotional bridge between you.
Our trained Play Therapists create a warm, supportive environment for families to grow together. CPRT typically spans 10–20 sessions and may involve the entire family, depending on your goals and needs. It is not about blame it’s about creating space for understanding, connection, and meaningful change.
When we strengthen the relationship, we strengthen the healing. And when the family heals together, everyone feels the impact.
If you’re ready to reconnect with your child and rebuild the trust that holds your family together, we’re here to help. Reach out today to learn how Child Parent Relationship Therapy can support your family’s growth and healing.

CPRT is a play-based therapy that helps strengthen the emotional bond between parents and their children through guided sessions.
CPRT is helpful for parents of children ages 3–10 who are dealing with behavioral issues, emotional struggles, or relationship stress.
Parents attend training sessions and practice play sessions at home, using specific skills to improve connection and communication.
The main sessions are for parents. However, children benefit indirectly through special playtime and improved parent-child bonding.
CPRT can address issues like aggression, anxiety, defiance, low self-esteem, attachment difficulties, and emotional outbursts.
It typically runs for 10–12 weeks, with weekly group or individual sessions, plus home-based playtime with the child.
