Description
Disruptive behavior disorders are among the most common reasons children are referred to mental health services, with Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder affecting an estimated 2–16% of youth. Decades of research demonstrate that Behavioral Parent Training (BPT) is one of the most effective interventions for reducing externalizing behaviors and improving parent-child interactions . This presentation will provide an overview of the core components shared across empirically supported parent training models—including Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and Parent Management Training (PMT) and review the research identifying which treatment elements produce the strongest outcomes, such as increasing positive parent-child interactions, teaching effective time-out procedures, promoting consistency, and requiring in-session practice.
Participants will gain practical knowledge of how to implement key interventions, including PRIDE skills, differential attention, effective commands, token economies, hands-off time-out procedures, attending and ignoring strategies, and structured reprimands. The workshop will also address clinical decision-making-when PCIT is indicated, when it may not be appropriate, and how PMT adaptations can provide safer and more effective alternatives . Emphasis will be placed on functional analysis, coaching parents toward skill mastery, preventing coercive cycles, and tailoring interventions to child temperament, developmental level, and family context. Attendees will leave with concrete tools to enhance treatment outcomes and increase parent confidence and self-efficacy.
