HaveHeartParenting

We have all read books on how to parent, from Dr.Spock in our parents generation to the newest Tough Love books on the shelves today. If you have a child with challenges, you have probably created reward-based charts hoping to increase or diminish specific behaviors. If your family is anything like mine, many of these approaches failed and you were left wishing your child had come with a personal instruction manual! HAVE HEART! There is a new parenting paradigm to erase all the focus on coercion and consequences. It is based purely in LOVE rather than FEAR and focuses on building your relationship with your child. If you have always felt there had to be a better way... you were right! This website is based on  THE STRESS MODEL TM by Bryan Post and dedicated to preserving a loving parent-child relationship.

Hello Friend: B. Bryan Post is America’s Foremost Child Behavior Expert. Founder and CEO of the Post Institute for Family-Centered Therapy based in Virginia Beach, VA.

An internationally recognized specialist in the treatment of emotional and behavioral disturbance in adults, children and families, he specializes in a holistic family-based treatment approach that addresses the underlying interactive dynamics of the entire family, a neurophysiologic process he refers to as, "The secret life of the family."
