Listen Later

Hi Parents!

If you’ve ever felt like your child’s anxiety is triggering your own old wounds, this episode will give you tools and hope for breaking the cycle.

I’m joined by Dr. Robyn Koslowitz, psychologist, trauma expert, and author of Post-Traumatic Parenting: Break the Cycle, Become the Parent You Always Wanted to Be. Dr. Koslowitz is the founder of the Post-Traumatic Parenting model, which helps parents heal their inner child while raising their real-world child with resilience and compassion.

In our conversation, Dr. Koslowitz shares her powerful “trauma app” metaphor, explains why trauma so often impacts our parenting, and walks us through the 5 subtypes of Post-Traumatic Parenting. We also talk about her R2 Parenting framework - Responsive and Responsible - and how it compares to other parenting styles.

If your teen struggles with anxiety, you’ll hear how their struggles might bring up your own trauma, and most importantly, what you can do to respond without passing that pain along.

More About Dr. Robyn Koslowitz:

Dr. Robyn Koslowitz is a psychologist and trauma expert who helps parents recognize how their own childhood experiences influence their parenting today. Through her Post-Traumatic Parenting model, she guides parents to break free from inherited patterns, heal their inner child, and raise resilient, emotionally secure kids. Her work combines clinical expertise with compassionate insight, offering parents both understanding and actionable tools.

This episode is filled with powerful insights and practical tools for parents of anxious teens. Dr. Koslowitz reminds us that while our inner child can’t raise a child, the very act of parenting our real-world children can become part of our own healing journey.

Big hugs,

Monica Crnogorac
