Testimonials

“This course opened my eyes to what is going on in my stepson’s brain. How my efforts to help at this point have been somewhat futile. . . but now I am armed with the proper tools to help us both navigate this journey with anxiety.”

“We I feel I have a better understanding of my own children and what they need from me . . I would recommend this course to all parents and caregivers”.

“I walked away from this course with lots of ideas to help our daughter as well as our family. . . It was definitely a worthwhile course that I feel every parent, caregiver or educator would benefit from.”

“As a newly appointed Educational Assistant, it was helpful to have a better understanding of how to empathize with a frazzled child. This presentation equipped me with several tools on how to identify a child that may have unhealthy levels of stress.”

“I work in this field myself and I have attended a lot of courses on childhood mental health. This was informative, straight forward, and deeply touching. Tammy’s no-nonsense style drove some important points home and left me with a lasting impression. I absolutely loved that her whole course was geared to what we, the adults in the child’s life, can do – not what the child needs to do/fix/improve on. I feel motivated and enlightened to personally take on parenting in an even more conscious and meaningful way. Thank you for that.”

"Thank you so much for sharing your kindness, understanding, and knowledge with us. With a 4 month old at home I was feeling disconnected with my 9 year old son. I found that we were just butting heads over pretty much everything. We used to have such a close relationship before baby, and I felt that no matter what I did I was just pushing him away. Your deep knowledge about the anatomy of a child’s brain helped me understand my son better and relate to him in a way I thought was not possible prior to this course. Thank you for giving me the tools that will help me get my little boy back and help him develop into a resilient and healthy teenager."

Tammy approaches her clinical and educational work with parents and professionals with an attachment and neurobiological lens: all of her work is based on the neurology of the brain and how attachment is integral to adaptive functioning of both children and adults. As a child who endured much trauma in her past she speaks about her personal experiences with family substance abuse, domestic violence, emotional abuse, and how the power of connection is integral to healing and overcoming adversity.

Tammy is passionate, empathic, and down to earth. Her no non-sense approach, woven with humor and personal narratives makes her relatable and her information about mental health, interpersonal neurobiology, trauma, and attachment easy to digest for the audience.

The Institute of Child Psychology was founded to educate parents and professionals on issues pertaining to children’s mental health, and to promote the psychological and emotional well-being of children and adolescents. Our mission is to empower caregivers (i.e., parents, teachers, therapists, social workers, psychologists ) by giving them pertinent insights, skills, and tools necessary to help children thrive.
