Nicole Twenter, LPC, has completed training and is now registered as a Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) provider. CPP is a nationally recognized, evidence-based treatment for young children and their caregivers affected by trauma.

With this accreditation, the CMH Pediatric Clinic now has two CPP providers: Twenter and Rachael Swopes, Psy.D. Together, they offer CPP therapy to strengthen the clinic’s capacity to support families during vulnerable times.

CPP is designed for children from birth to age 5 and their parents or caregivers. The therapy focuses on restoring a sense of safety, strengthening attachment and promoting healing from traumatic experiences such as abuse, domestic violence, loss or other disruptions.

The CPP training process requires more than 18 months of coursework, reflective supervision and hands-on clinical experience under nationally trained CPP therapists.

The CMH Pediatric Clinic is located at 1195 N. Oakland Ave. in Bolivar. For more information about CPP or establishing care at the CMH Pediatric Clinic, call 417-777-2121.
