Post Traumatic Parenting is a practical, compassionate, and substantive guide for parents who want to break free of their trauma wounds and raise their children with greater calm, connection, and intention. The book introduces Dr. Robyn Koslowitz’s signature “trauma app” metaphor: the idea that unresolved trauma can run in the background like an old survival program, shaping how parents react even when they want to do better. At its core, the book offers a hopeful message: your damage does not have to damage your children. Dr. Koslowitz helps readers understand how trauma affects the nervous system, why parenting can feel so triggering, and how secure attachment is built through helping children feel safe, soothed, seen, and secure. Warm, accessible, and deeply validating, Post Traumatic Parenting gives parents unique tools and instructions for turning their own survival strategies into parenting superpowers. Most important, it helps readers break their cycle, enjoy the journey, and create healthy, joyful, dynamic, lasting relationships. It is the singular guide to become the parent you always wanted to be.
