In this episode, Diana is joined by guest Scotty Aemis, who shares his experiences with adopting two children from a Russian orphanage and the challenges they faced. Traditional parenting techniques failed to address the needs of his traumatized children, leading Scotty to develop his Positive Safe Relationships Approach to Parenting (PSR). Scotty, who calls himself the 'Child Trauma Sherpa', discusses the importance of relationships in healing trauma, the pitfalls of public schooling for traumatized children, and his journey towards finding effective therapeutic interventions. He offers practical advice and examples for parents in similar situations, emphasizing the need for patience, trust, and regulation. Scotty also touches on the role of trauma-informed therapy and specialized schools like Lakeside in Philadelphia, which are designed to support children with trauma. The episode concludes with a promise of more insights and resources in the next installment.
Bio:
Scotty Aemis is passionate about helping parents navigate childhood trauma. After he and his wife adopted two children, they found themselves learning everything they could about helping their children thrive. Everything that felt instinctually “right” was actually not helpful for children trying to heal from trauma. That set him on a journey to develop out my PSR (Positive Safe Relationships) Approach to parenting. It’s helpful for all children and parents, but especially those navigating childhood trauma.
