Circle of Security Parenting®

About

The Circle of Security® Parenting protocol is an innovative intervention program designed to improve the developmental pathway of children and their caregivers.

The Circle of Security® Parenting Program has integrated over fifty years of early child development research into a DVD-based intervention that strengthens parents’ abilities to observe and improve their caregiving skills. 

 

Every child comes into the world seeking a secure relationship with her/his caregivers. The Circle of Security® Parenting (TM) program taught by our registered Circle of Security® Educators are designed to promote that security.

This model was created by Glen Cooper, Kent Hoffman, and Bert Powell from Marycliff Institute in Spokane, Washington. and is supported by Advocates for Children in Therapy (ACT)! Circle of Security® Parenting Program can be presented in both a group or one-to-one education, either in your home or in our office.
