Parents StoryTell us a little about what brought you to PRIWhat is your understanding of the parallel
process?What is your child’s involvement in the family
therapy

What is the Parallel Process?
When parents engage therapeutically alongside their adolescent.
When Parents work to understand their OWN thoughts, feelings and behaviors
Learning to relate differently to their adolescent
The development of self knowledge
![Page 5: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Goal of the Parallel Process
“For parents to regain their footing, learn and growso they can meet their son or daughter with newawareness, insight, perspective and appreciation.
The Parallel Process can also safe guard all theemotional work your child is doing in treatment bylearning how to integrate these new skills into the
family.” Krissy Pozatek

Need for the Parallel Process
Parenting is tough
We all have blindspots
Opportunity to open up and look at blindspots
For long-term success, the wholefamily has to operate differently
![Page 7: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Benefits
For the Child: Sense of relief, Doesn’t feel like the “screw up”
For the Parent: Feel more in control
Long-term success

What gets in the way…
Myths about Treatment The “Hand-em-Over” Myth
The “Create-Your-Own Treatment”
Blaming the other ParentFocus on the Child
Focus on the ProgramFocus on the Future
Parents, what was one of the things that gets in your way?How did you prevent yourselves from falling into that trap?
![Page 9: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The intent is not to blame parents for their child’s
problems, but to highlight negative patterns that many
fall into and empower parents to begin a new relationship
with their child.Parents – it’s easy to go into self blame. What was your process working
through that? How did you move beyond blame to actually doing the work?

What Often Happens without the Parallel Process:
Continuation of the Parent/Child Tangle
Boundaries without Attunement
Attunement without Boundaries
No Container

Parents who Have done their Work… Work to:
Create an environment where you they have: behavioral boundaries and expectations emotional attunement a culture of open communication and growth
Parents, what has this work been like for you?

ResearchDo Parental Skills Affect
Youth Outcomes?
![Page 15: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Interested to see if higher levels of parental engagement & skills
predict better outcomes for youths
What Outcomes?◦Substance Use◦Externalizing Disorder Scores (CBCL; Achenbach 2003)
◦Internalizing Disorder Scores (CBCL; Achenbach 2003)
![Page 16: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Technical Jargon – Simply PutScores that are different for different people are
called variables (they vary). Think weight.Some factors predict how much they vary from
person to person. Think height.A predictor accounts for a certain percentage of
variability on outcomes.The more variability accounted for, the stronger the
association between the predictor and the outcome.
More than one predictor might contribute to the variability. Think male/female.
![Page 17: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
First, we need to look at individual factors that might affect youth
outcomes
1. Therapeutic Progression (Stage):Further progression through therapy predicts lower his or her drug use Post-PRI and externalizing disorders at 3-6M.
2. Sex:Boys have higher rates of drug use Post-PRI than girls.
3. Age:Older youths have higher scores on internalizing disorders than younger youths at 3-6M Post-PRI but later Post-PRI age didn’t matter.
4. Number of Mental Health Diagnoses (incl. ADD/ADHD):
The more diagnoses a youth has at entry to PRI, the higher the internalizing disorder scores Post-PRI.
![Page 18: The Parallel Process The Parent’s Role in the Development and Growth of the Adolescent and the Family Our Experts: Tracy, Donna, & Cam Victoria Creighton,](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d8e5503460f94a7720f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Put them all together with parental factors
Now, we want to see if parental factors make a difference on outcomes, even after you
account for the variability from the child / program factors that mattered.
We are ‘controlling’ for predictors we know influence youth outcomes.

SummaryWe know there are some youth & program
factors that predict outcomes◦Progression, age, sex, and mental health
diagnosesWhen we account for these, parental
attunement and limit setting are significant predictors of youth outcomes
Recommend development of these skills for parents while youth are in treatment

Next StepsLook at clinician rating of parental
engagement and it’s effect on completion & outcomes
