#31: How New Parents Can Support Secure Attachment

with Annie Brook, Therapist & Founder of the Brook Institute

In this episode, Annie Brook and I explore ways to support secure attachment between parents and infants. Annie helps parents, children, and families connect through her work as a therapist and educator. She understands early precognitive memory, like birth or attachment trauma, and how to help it heal.

Annie’s methods integrate body awareness, emotions, thoughts, and behaviors to create lasting change with behavior difficulties, so she’s got interesting stories to share. She helps new parents and newborns recover from birth trauma, and trains therapists to do the same.
