The Child Psych Podcast


Jan 18, 2023

Dr. Deborah McNamara, clinical psychologist and best-selling author of several of our favourite books, explores the unfolding of the relational dance between a child and their primary caregiver. In this podcast, we talk about the stages of attachment and what we will see as caregivers at each stage. We also explore the importance of "collecting before directing "- engaging a child relationally before giving direction and what to do when children resist our direction.Don’t miss this weeks podcast- a podcast that empowers parents to lead their child, and to be the answer for them when everything else seems uncertain.
