Circle of Security®

A Parenting Support Program

At Tapiz Mental Health Services, we know that parenting can feel overwhelming at times. There are moments when every parent feels unsure or disconnected, wondering how to best support their child. The Circle of Security® Parenting™ program offers a warm and practical framework to help you better understand your child’s emotional world and strengthen your relationship with them.

What Is Circle of Security® Parenting?

Circle of Security® Parenting™ is an evidence-based, video-enhanced program rooted in decades of attachment research. It’s designed to help caregivers:

  • Make sense of their child’s behavior by understanding the emotional needs beneath it

  • Respond with greater confidence, sensitivity, and compassion

  • Reflect on their own parenting experiences and emotional triggers

  • Learn how to be a secure base and safe haven for their child

  • Strengthen their child’s ability to trust, explore, and feel safe in the world

  • Deepen the parent-child connection through consistent, attuned caregiving

This program isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being “good enough,” again and again, in ways that build security, trust, and lifelong resilience.

Who Is This Ideal For?

  • Parents, grandparents, and caregivers of children from infancy to early school age

  • Families navigating stress, transitions, or big emotions

  • Anyone wanting to feel more connected, confident, and attuned in their parenting

We welcome caregivers from all backgrounds and offer the program in English, Spanish, or bilingually, honoring your language and cultural identity.
