Parenting in the 21st Century: The Neuro-Informed™ Parent

Book cover of Parenting in the 21st Century by Johanna Simmons with a colorful brain illustration.

Understanding children’s behaviour through neuroscience, play, and relationship

Brain science has taught us so much more about our children’s brain development and how this important information can guide parents on how to best support their children.  This comprehensive parenting program is based on my book Parenting in the 21st Century: The Neuro-Informed Parent. It reframes behaviour as nervous-system communication rather than defiance or pathology. Integrating expressive play therapy, interpersonal neurobiology, polyvagal theory, attachment theory, Adlerian psychology, and body-based practices, the book translates complex theory into accessible, practical guidance. Designed for parents, caregivers, and helping professionals, it combines case examples, reflective prompts, and usable strategies for everyday settings.Order your copy now.
