Chaos to Healing

Fantastic introduction to therapeutic parenting
An amazing and important resource for parents with children who have experienced early childhood trauma and/or have attachment disorders. It teaches an outside-the-box way of responding to these childrens' incredibly challenging behaviors that isn't punitive or shaming. It is based on some of Daniel Hughes' work on using playfulness, acceptance, curiosity and empathy as the basis of parenting hurt children, but builds upon it in a way that is healthy and healing. It also teaches some of the basics of attachment and how the normal attachments formed in early childhood are broken or damaged for many of our kids. A must-have for any adoptive or foster parent. I found out about the DVD through House Calls Counseling's amazing conference called Parenting in SPACE for parents of kids with trauma. It happens every year in the Chicago area. The therapist and therapeutic parent in this DVD are both involved in teaching and leading this conference.

wonderful and easy to watch
I have used this with clinicians to help them learn the language to discuss working with families struggling not just with RAD but other childhood presentations needing the SPACE approach.
Thank you ..
