On today's episode, I am joined by Selma Bacevac, LMHC. Selma is the owner of the Hope and Healing Center, and also hosts the Parent Child Guru podcast based out of Jacksonville, Florida. Selma specializes in working with adopted children ages 0-5, and their parents. We discuss the importance of parents building relationships and connections with their children; and how a lack to do so can cause children to be traumatized and unable to build healthy relationships of their own. Selma also discussed the telltale signs of children who grow up in abusive and chaotic homes, and what interventions can be used to stop the abuse. If you want to find out more information or connect with Selma, then please reach out to her via her website www.hopeandhealingcenter.com.
