As a parent, I’ve faced the challenges of raising children who’ve experienced trauma firsthand. When my wife and I adopted our two children, we quickly realized that our instincts, though well-meaning, weren’t always what they needed to heal and thrive. This realization set me on a journey of discovery, leading to the creation of the PSR (Positive Safe Relationships) Approach—a framework that fosters healing, trust, and growth. This approach has not only helped our children but has also proven to be a valuable tool for parents everywhere, especially those supporting children through trauma. For more on my journey and the PSR Approach, listen to my interview with WITneSSes where I dive deeper into the experiences that shaped this method.
