Show Notes
As a parent to a young adult who was adopted through foster care and also is the parent that goes through attachment interviews and experienced supervised visits and phone calls with a child at a residential facility, I am uniquely poised to discuss what it is like to be the observer and observee in parent/child interactions.
Professionally, I'm a Certified Parent Coach® whose passion is helping families with children who have experienced trauma or struggle with attachment.
I started The Foster Lane Parent Coaching in 2016. My goal: Use coaching to help others avoid some of the parenting challenges my own family faced.
I've spent over 1,500 hours researching trauma, children's brain development, parenting strategies, and foster and adoptive parenting. I successfully completed the graduate-level Parent Coach Certification program through the Parent Coaching Institute®, have completed the initial training in Theraplay™, and continue to attend conferences on trauma-informed parenting.
We talked about Sarah and her wife's story, and their journey to becoming parents.
Things we talked about on this episode:
- attachment styles, how they are formed, and how they affect us today.
- ACE's
- Reaction vs. Response
- Training your brain to regain control
- Creating Cooperation vs. Compliance
- Mindset shift
