The role of the parent in treatment
The role of the parent in therapy is an important part of the psychological approach, especially when it comes to children and adolescents. Parental involvement and support can have profound effects on the success of the therapeutic process and the child's well-being.
First of all, the parental role is often highlighted as a kind of collaboration with the psychologist. In most cases, the parent is not just an observer, but an active member of the therapeutic process. This may include participation in family therapy sessions, where the dynamics of relationships within the family are analysed and examined.
