| Treatment goals |
|
We thoroughly review all information in the family's application packet; the results of our information gathering process; and assessments from other professionals. From there we design an individualized, realistic intervention with specific goals for each child to help both the child and his parents learn to undo the damage he suffered in the past. Treatment is structured to help parents provide their child with what was never offered to him in previous environments. In general, our goals include the following:
- Reduce the feelings of helplessness and hopelessness
- Enhance child's self-concept
- Reduce self-destructive behavior
- Develop a more secure attachment—increase trust, reciprocity, emotional closeness with parents
- Increase child's ability to be loved and cared for by his parents
- Increase child's willingness to be comforted.
- Deal with child's trauma, loss, and grief issues in hopes of finding some positive resolutions.
- Teach parents effective parenting strategies
