REPLAY: When Your Child Doesn't Participate in Therapy

The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}

I know it feels very frustrating when you find a therapist, arrange your schedule, and find a way to pay for therapy only for your child to not participate. Often parents ask me how to get their child to participate or what to do if their child won’t participate.

But actually what we really need to talk about is what does it look like to participate- or not- in therapy. Especially as a child.

In this episode, we’ll talk about

• What therapy really is
• What the right pace is for your child
• How it’s not possible for your child to not participate (if the therapist is prioritizing safety)
