Understanding the Circle of Security Program

The Circle of Security Program was developed by clinical professionals to provide parents with tools and insights needed to understand and meet their children's emotional needs. Based on decades of research and attachment theory, the program emphasises the importance of secure parent-child relationships. Here are the key components:

  • Recognising Children's Emotional Needs
  • Understanding the Circle
  • Enhancing Parenting Skills
  • Reflecting on Parenting
  • How the Program Helps Parents During Separation


Separation is a challenging time for both parents and children. The Circle of Security Program offers several benefits that are particularly valuable during this period:

  • Ensures Emotional Stability
  • Improves Communication
  • Strengthens Parent-Child Bonds
  • Supports Co-Parenting
  • Reduces Conflict.
  • Implementing the Program


The Circle of Security Program can be attended voluntarily. There are programs run by Relationships Australia and Relationships Queensland, as well as private options. Parents can attend on their own accord, as part of addressing concerns raised in Family Law Matters, or as part of a mediation agreement or parenting plan.
