Parenting in the Trenches with Karen Peters

Neurodiverse families: When feeling unsafe shapes our developing brains, with Dr. Geddes


Listen Later

Dear parents, caregivers and support people of kids who have lived through traumatic experiences,

We know how hard parenting in healing ways really is. We also know more now about how best to go about it than we did just 10 years ago. Dr. Chuck Geddes shares his own findings after serving over 300 families through his Complex Care Intervention program, and brings his authentic and compassionate lens to the conversation. He's absolutely passionate about and dedicated to helping kids in BC's foster care system and in adoptive families thrive past their trauma.

Kids who have come from hard places need such unique care. Their output can be harsh, confusing and seem counter intuitive to building healthy attachments with adults, making it such a true labour of love for parents who go about regulating their child's nervous system over and over....and over....yes, and over again. It's slow healing, but thanks to wise people in the field of trauma-informed care, we have a much better sense about what's possible and what direction we need to head in to get there.

After you listen to today's episode, you might feel like you want more support. Chuck and I agreed to honour that ongoing learning with discounted access to our online courses. We've got your back.
