What is Best Way to Train a PCIT Therapist?
Amy Herschell, PhD, contributes this guest blog entry to help answer our question about what components should be included in a PCIT training program. Evaluation of training is a VERY important part of PCIT training and treatment (as well as it is for other evidence-based treatments [EBTs]) and, unfortunately, it’s an area where we have very little research to guide our decision-making. With regard to research being conducted on training model efficacy, I think we may have some lessons to learn from the broader psychotherapy implementation literature. Some colleagues and I recently completed a review of training methods for implementing [...]

How to Handle Elimination During Time Out
In this installment of Clinician’s Corner, Dr. Melanie Nelson provides some guidance on how to handle elimination during time out sequences. Q: What are some strategies therapists can use to address a child wetting or soiling themselves (or their surrounding area) during a time-out? A: 1) Have the child use the bathroom immediately before session (an ounce of prevention and all that). That way chances are better if they are complaining that they need to go to the bathroom it is an attention-seeking behavior and not the real thing. If needed, they could also use the bathroom when switching parents [...]
