Parenting children from hard places presents unique challenges. This “Parenting with the Brain in Mind” training empowers you to apply a brain-based approach that makes sense of both your child’s behavior and your own feelings as a parent. Often, “big behaviors” reflect lagging skills rather than willful defiance.

Discover how difficulties with attention, organization, and emotional regulation can be the root causes of many behaviors and learn practical ways to support growth in this area. Additionally, we’ll address blocked care—when our nervous systems shift into self-protection mode—affecting connection with our children. Gain the tools to foster empathy and rediscover your joy in parenting.

TOPICS WE'LL EXPLORE INCLUDE...

The effects of trauma on brain development

Teach new strategies that decrease frustration

Strategies to stay regulated and pursue connection

Critical self-care and compassion building practices
