Abstract
The primary advantage of Non-Violent Resistance (NVR) psychology is its ability to offer a brief and effective therapeutic model, even when a child resists psychotherapy. This has led to limited attention on simultaneous child psychotherapy alongside parental training in NVR. However, what if we could work together with parents and children to de-escalate conflicts and rebuild their relationship, fostering secure attachment?

Clinical practice shows that conducting child psychotherapy alongside parental training in NVR is not only feasible but also highly effective in many cases. Additionally, many therapists who primarily work with the child and meet with parents every few weeks actively integrate NVR concepts and tools into their clinical approach.

In this workshop Ohad Nahum focuses on:

• Theoretical and practical considerations for managing effective psychotherapy with children simultaneously to parental training in NVR by the same therapist.
• Establishing rapport and a therapeutic contract with both the child and parents.
• Indications and contraindications for this therapeutic approach.

Participants can expect a presentation, short clinical vignettes and discussion with Q&A.
