Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) is an intervention for young children, birth through age 5, who have experienced at least one traumatic event and are experiencing behavior, attachment, and/or mental health problems, including posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The child and parent/caregiver are treated together. The central goal of CPP is to support and strengthen the caregiver-child relationship as a vehicle for restoring and protecting the child’s mental health.
