At nurtured therapy we believe parents and caregivers are an integral part of the child’s world. We therefore strongly encourage parents to actively participate in the therapy process. Collaboration will involve all parties being responsive to feedback and being open to learning and developing new parenting skills. Developing a relationship of trust and respect between parents and therapist will increase positive therapeutic outcomes for the child.
