This training explores the often-overlooked dynamic of child-to-parent violence, a form of family violence rooted in histories of emotional and psychological health, attachment disruptions, and regulation difficulties. Participants will gain insight into the underlying causes of aggression directed toward caregivers, learn to recognize patterns of escalation, and develop informed strategies to respond with safety, connection and effectiveness. Emphasis is placed on fostering resilience, supporting caregiver well-being, and creating pathways for healing within the parent–child relationship.
