Circle of Security Parenting

An Education Program designed to intervene early in the mental health of children and to prevent stress between caregivers and children by increasing their attachment, connection, and communication.

At times all parents feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you. The Circle of Security Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and
strengthened.

Using the COS-P model developed by the Circle of Security originators, trained Facilitators work with parents and care-givers to help them to:

• Understand your child’s emotional world by learning to read the emotional needs

• Support your child’s ability to successfully manage emotions

• Enhance the development of your child's self esteem

• Honor your innate wisdom and desire for your child to be secure

Psychotherapy

Asking for help is a brave and vulnerable step. I strive to come along side people as they work to understand themselves and others. My therapeutic process is based on my developmentally informed, trauma-aware perspective. I have a strong understanding of attachment theory and an understanding of trauma’s impact on functioning. I have a passion around supporting parents, I am a member of Pregnancy and Postpartum Support Minnesota, and a registered facilitator for Circle of Security Parenting. I also have interest in Poly Vagal Theory and the tools of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. My experiences have giving me a foundation in understanding early experiences and their influence on who we are and how we interact with people.
