Dear Adoptive, Foster, Grandma, or Stressed Mama,

You’ve tried all the reward charts, consequences, bribes, and even connected parenting approaches and nothing seems to work. You’re cranky, short-fused, and just tired. You are expected to help regulate your out-of-control child but wonder who is there to regulate you?? You ‘re left feeling guilty and in this cycle you can’t seem to get out of.

We all know you can’t pour from an empty cup. It’s time to take the time needed for you to recharge and get your own regulation! You can’t give the calm you don’t have, no matter how many books you read on trauma parenting. Working on building your own secure attachment and experiencing deep regulation for yourself can help you to be able to apply these TBRI and connected parenting approaches and finally get some traction in your home.

Schedule individual sessions for yourself or keep an eye out for my mom’s group during the school year!
