Do you ever feel lost trying to understand your child's past trauma? Do you ever wish you had someone who could help you make sense of behaviors and better advocate for your child?

We totally understand this feeling! In fact, that was us for the first decade of our foster and adoption parenting journey. And it was frustrating! 

We couldn't understand why we struggled to connect with our child when we so desperately wanted to. We had no explanation when their behaviors would suddenly escalate at the drop of a hat. And along with that, we often walked out of our child's school, or pediatrician's office, feeling hopeless. 

Sound familiar? 

If so, we want you to know there is hope. And there is a solution!

What if....

  • You had a working knowledge of your child's trauma history so you could respond in the most effective way possible to their needs? 
  • You had the tools to understand and better manage defiant, disrespectful, or aggressive behaviors? 
  • You had a simple understanding of how to build a secure attachment with your child?
  • You were equipped to help your child calm down quickly and return to peace after a meltdown?
  • You could effectively and practically explain your child's trauma to a teacher, therapist, or pediatrician in order to maximize the services they could receive?

How different would your journey be?

"I highly recommend Trauma Knowledge Masterclass as an excellent way for parents to learn more about trauma. This format is an excellent way to really absorb the information and challenge yourself to be the best parent you can be, even through the tough stuff."

Here's a glance at each Module included in the course...

MODULE 1: Trauma & Attachment Knowledge

In Module 1 we will lay the groundwork for the rest of the course by walking through a simple (yet in-depth) framework for understanding how trauma changes the brain, how trauma disrupts attachment, and how to rebuild broken attachment. When you have a working knowledge of how trauma has altered your child's thinking, you will be equipped to better respond to their needs.

MODULE 2- Behavior Management Strategies

In Module 2 we will walk you through the why behind the behaviors you are seeing and help you identify potentially extreme behaviors. Plus, we will give you the steps to take to manage those behaviors the instant they happen. Beyond that, this module will teach you intervention tactics as well as how to prevent extreme behaviors from happening in the first place.

MODULE 3- Co-Regulation & Re-Regulation Practices

In Module 3 we will shift the focus to you as the parent, and your child. We will talk through the importance of helping your child re-regulate when he or she is stressed, overwhelmed, or anxious, but also the cricital need for you to co-regulate with your child. We will also walk through self-care strategies that both you and your child can apply when you need it the most.

MODULE 4:Communicating Trauma Knowledge

Wouldn't it be great to have a full fledged plan, and talking points, to take with you into a pediatrician's office, a meeting at your child's school, or a therapy appointment? Module 4 will help you formulate that and more. We will give you proven strategies and communication steps you can utilize to better communicate your child's needs and get the results you are looking for.

MODULE 5: Going Beyond Childhood

The big question, after gaining a knowledge of trauma and behavior management is, what will life and parenting look when your child reaches adulthood? The fact is, many of us will be actively parenting our children, and supporting them, long after high school is over. But what does that look like? In this module we will walk through ways you can achieve independence but also help your child be independent. 

MODULE 6: Setting Up Your Home For Success

We will conclude this course by discussing home safety and how to make sure you have created an environment that allows for health and safety for all of your family. We will walk through, in detail, what to do if you are ever the subject of a CPS investigation, how to create and maintain a safety plan for your children, and how to manage crisis situations within your home (if that arises)
