Patients & Students
“Raising a child with attachment issues is incredibly challenging. It can – at times – be exhausting, upsetting, frustrating, depressing, frightening or infuriating. And, it can take a toll on even the strongest, most devoted parent. But with the appropriate support, knowledge and skills parents can overcome many of the difficulties and raise a happier and healthier child.”
