When parenting a child who has experienced trauma, a traditional model of punishment is not only ineffective, but can exacerbate behavior. This interactive webinar is designed to help parents, caregivers, and professionals shift their lens from managing behavior to building connections and addressing the underlying needs which drive the behavior. Participants will come away with a foundational understanding of attachment and readily implementable strategies to bring more peace and joy into the home.
