Trauma-Informed Parenting

How does trauma affect children? How do I become a trauma-informed parent? How do I parent a child with a trauma history? What about children with neurodiversities? How can I not take my child’s behaviors personally? How can I make peace with my past and be a more present parent? How can I leave traditional parenting behind? And the biggest question of all, can I *really* parent the way my kiddos need? Whether you’re parenting kiddos who came home to you through adoption/foster care, or kiddos with a neurodiversity(or both), this is the show for you. The Trauma-Informed Parenting podcast is like attending a parenting workshop in a cafe. Grab a cup of coffee, your notebook, and earbuds, and get ready to learn. Each episode is jam-packed with a combination of science, stories, practical steps, and encouragement. You can learn with experts about why and how you need to parent differently than parents with neurotypical kiddos. Leave the chaos behind, connect with your kiddos, and find some peace in your home.
