About this ebook
Therapeutic parenting is not your usual parenting style. It's a special, specific way to raise kids who have experienced trauma in their past, and requires a lot of commitment and determination - this is about far more than love and care.
But where do you start?
This book is the ideal first step for anyone who wants to understand how therapeutic parenting works. It offers simple summaries of the key ideas behind it, fully illustrated throughout with informative cartoons and graphics. Over 40 different issues are covered, from dysregulation and fear, to setting boundaries and parenting in the midst of trauma.
The perfect introduction for new therapeutic parents, family members, teachers or other adults who need to help support you and your child, this Quick Guide will also be a source of inspiration for more experienced parents.

As a birth mother to 4 children reading this made me smile and cry...many of your"stories" (which by the way was amazingly helpful)reminded me of many many times I can relate to...I wish I had this to read 45years ago...but would I have acted on it? being a young,think you can do a better job than your parents?I don't seriously think I would...but to have had the knowledge to choose..who knows. One of my children is going through the process of adoption...how proud I feel..but at first worried..after reading you A-Z I feel a stronger..more positive..support for them...of course when they need it🥰 thank you for the amazing insight to therapeutic parenting...and things they will come across in adopting children..and of course helping me understand a therapeutic grandparent....
