Understanding the link between attachmen...

CINDY HOVINGTON, PH.D.
About this episode

In today’s episode we are joined by Dr. Sarah Bren, clinical psychologist and mom of 2. She gives us a whole new perspective on discipline, attachment and setting boundaries. Dr. Bren shows us the importance of disciplining a child – tune in to better understand what her definition of discipline really is – in order to build a secure attachment. She discusses how YOUR self-regulation can influence the way you parent and how secure your child feels. We also touch on tantrums and how we can deal with them, including coregulation. There is so much amazing content in this episode so take out your Curious Neuron notebooks!
