About Parent-Child Attachment Play

Parent-Child Attachment Play (PCAP) is an enjoyable and proven programme where a therapist works with the parent/carer to strengthen the parent/carer – child relationship. PCAP works on the belief that parents/ carers are the expert on their child and can be the ‘change agent’ in their own family. This course is designed to empower parents to develop a happier, more united family home!

The PCAP practitioner works with the parent to encourage playfulness and teach skills to empower the parent to build a more secure relationship with their child.  It is a gentle play-based approach which provides parents with the skills to improve family relationships. 

PCAP is typically offered as a 10-week course consisting of weekly 1:1 sessions with the therapist and the parent/ carer.

The programme can also be offered as an addition following a course of play therapy for the child as a way of cementing the therapeutic process of the child into family life.

There will also be group sessions available.
