Trauma Informed Parenting

Let me tell you a little about me and the charity TIP, -Trauma Informed Parenting. After fostering for seven years and parenting my own two girls, one with special needs, I am only too aware of the challenges that children with trauma and special needs can struggle with and how little help or support is available. While attending the ‘ACE Aware nation conference, in September 2018 I was introduced to the work of Bryan Post of the Post Institute and his ‘Stress model’. Using his trauma lens techniques changed everything for my foster child, my own PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) child and everyone in our home. This was truly transformational, so much so that I became certified in the stress model and feel driven to share this information with as many people as possible. I just wish I had known this years ago.
