Calm the Chaos: A Parent's Polyvagal Guide to Neurodivergent Parenting

Transform daily meltdowns into moments of connection with this groundbreaking polyvagal approach to neurodivergent parenting.

Does your ADHD or autistic child struggle with emotional regulation, sensory overwhelm, and behavioral challenges that traditional parenting methods can't address? This comprehensive guide reveals how understanding your child's nervous system changes everything.

Discover the science-backed strategies that actually work:

Window of tolerance techniques for preventing meltdowns before they start

Sensory-smart home modifications that support daily functioning

Age-specific regulation activities from toddlers to teenagers

School advocacy tools for IEP and 504 plan accommodations

Crisis management protocols for active dysregulation moments

What makes this different: Unlike punishment-based approaches, this book teaches you to read your child's nervous system signals and respond with targeted support that builds long-term resilience. You'll learn why behavior is communication and how to create family environments where neurodivergent children thrive.

Inside you'll find:

20 detailed chapters covering every aspect of nervous system support

Real family case studies showing transformation in action

Visual guides and practical tools for immediate implementation

Sibling support strategies for whole-family wellness

Teen-specific approaches for building independence with support

Stop fighting against your child's neurobiology and start working with it. This isn't about fixing your child—it's about understanding how their unique nervous system works and providing the support they need to succeed.

Perfect for parents, caregivers, educators, and therapists supporting neurodivergent children ages 3-18.
