Online 8-Week Circle of Security Parenting Program


Parenting is not an easy task and figuring out what your child needs throughout their development can be even more challenging.

The Circle of Security® Parenting Program is a self-reflective, 8-week group for parents to support understanding of attachment and strengthening their relationship with their child. Circle of Security is a visual map of attachment that supports parents in reflecting on their child’s needs to promote a stronger, more secure relationship. We are hardwired for connection, and the Circle of Security program provides a model of how to connect better with our children, even when it’s hard to connect with them.

In this workshop you will have the opportunity to:

  • Understand how to identify and respond to your child’s emotional needs

  • Learn how to support your child with successfully managing their emotions

  • Enhance and improve the development of your child’s self-esteem

  • Understand relationship-based tools to connect with and calm your child

  • Learn how to respond to difficult behaviors to build secure attachment

  • Reflect on and grow from your own personal experiences with parenting
