In this episode of Psyched for Sanity, Dr. Parker and Dr. Doss talk about co-regulation and what it really looks like in everyday parenting. From emotional meltdowns and sensory overload to the constant “noise” of family life, they explore how staying regulated as a parent helps children feel safe, understood, and supported. Drawing from clinical experience and real-life examples, they break down why co-regulation matters, how it develops, and practical ways parents can use it to strengthen connection during even the hardest moments.
