What are trauma parenting techniques?

Trauma parenting techniques are approaches that prioritise safety, predictable structure, and connection when a child’s behaviours are shaped by early trauma. The Adoption Project teaches practical strategies that help you respond instead of react, reduce high behaviours, strengthen parent-child attachment, and work with your wider “village” so your child experiences consistent support.
