'An Early Intervention Approach for Reducing Child Maltreatment and Managing Disruptive Behaviours in Preschool Children'

Professor Cheryl McNeil’s clinical and research interests are focused on programme development and evaluation, specifically with regard to abusive parenting practices and managing the disruptive behaviours of young children in both the home and school settings.

Professor McNeil will focus her talk on Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), an evidence-based behavioural treatment for families of young children with disruptive behaviour disorders and/or child physical abuse. Applying PCIT within physically abusive families and other special populations will be discussed.
