Abstract
Abstract
This article is an exploration of drama therapy for the treatment of the parentified child, ages 4–6, who has witnessed domestic violence. A theoretical model is presented exploring how the therapeutic needs of parentified children who have experienced domestic violence can be met. Following the review of related literature, a three-phase drama therapeutic treatment protocol will be offered as a treatment to correct the potentially detrimental role reversal of parentification, prompted by domestic violence.
