Episode 16: Healing trauma for ourselves and our children with Chris

In this episode I have the pleasure of having a conversation with Chris Muller. Chris is a Psychologist, Counsellor and Coach in Transactional Analysis. She is a level 2 Aware Parenting instructor, the regional coordinator for Aware Parenting in Holland and the founder of the Aware Parenting Academy in the Netherlands. She helps parents and professionals connect to their own inner child, without fear, judgement or guilt and from a place of trust, safety and love to heal their trauma. In this episode we discuss how she discovered Aware Parenting and incorporated it into healing her own childhood trauma. Chris shares how important it is for us to do our own healing work in order to be able to support our children with Aware Parenting. We talk about how our children teach us to be more compassionate with ourselves and how this approach supports us to care for our inner child when it comes up in our parenting. She describes how to use Aware Parenting to heal her child’s trauma and the challenges to do so in a system that doesn’t understand, recognise or support Aware Parenting.
