Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)

PCIT International was created to promote fidelity in the practice of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy through well-conducted research, training, and continuing education of therapists and trainers. By creating an interface between the scholarly activities of PCIT researchers and the expertise of front-line clinicians, PCIT International promotes healthy family functioning.

PCIT International was founded by the developer of PCIT, Dr. Sheila Eyberg. It is the only organization that offers therapist and trainer certification processes approved by the developer of the intervention.

Certification by PCIT International indicates that a therapist or trainer has met the standards of the organization for implementation.
