About CBPT Clinical Applications - Toileting Issues course
Toileting issues are very common in young children. Most difficulties are resolved without the family seeking treatment for their child. In many situations, if the parents cannot help the child with age-appropriate toileting skills, the parents may seek help from parenting literature, other parents or the child’s pediatrician. Sometimes, child therapists will be consulted for cases that have not been helped by earlier attempts by the parents. When a child therapist becomes involved, the child is often a bit older (above age 3). Although traditionally, programs to help children with appropriate toileting have often been behavioral management programs implemented by the parents, there are situations where the child’s active involvement in the treatment is important. This module reviews using CBPT for children with toileting issues and presents two different cases that were successfully treated by CBPT.
