Pentingnya Anak Bersosialisasi

Saya menyukai saat mba Astrid memberikan penjelasan mengenai manfaat komunikasi non verbal sebagai bagian dari hal untuk membuat anak merasa aman. Saya terkesan karena hal-hal simpel sangat berguna dalam berkomunikasi dengan anak.

materi dan penyampaian mbak Astrid sangat menggugah hati saya. Bagian yang paling berkesan dalam materi mbak Astrid adalah tentang anak dan trauma serta bagaimana kita bertahan dalam situasi tersebut.

Terima kasih kepada mbak Astrid untuk sharingnya. Semoga saya dan keluarga juga bisa terus saling bahu membahu mengasuh keturunan2 kami menjadi anak2 yang bisa bermanfaat di waktunya nanti. quote “ To build a better future, we have to build a better brain “ yang td mbak Astrid mention setelah pemutaran video “How Brains Are Built?” membekas di pikiran saya. Senang dan bersyukur sekali rasanya bisa bertemu dengan narasumber yang sepaham dgn visi dan misi keluarga kami dalam pola pengasuhan anak.

Sangat detail dan rinci, dan mba astrid menggunakan bahasa ga begitu formal tapi dapat langsung dipahami. Selain itu banyak video, yag tidak langsung malah membuat berkaca-kaca karena langsung ingat Ibu (begini ya dulu ibu kita ngajak kita main..) dan bahagia sekali saat lihat anak kita bermain lalu tertawa.

Mbak Astrid bekerja dengan tim-nya. Enak sekali saya datang ke mba Astrid sudah langsung disiapkan ini itu, tidak perlu lagi mondar-mandir ke tempat lain untuk asesmen lain. Suka dengan pelayanan lengkap yang mba Astrid sediakan. Terus berkembang pelayanannya ya Mbak

I came across Ibu Astrid and Theraplay when my daughter was in Kindergarten.

We had a couple of traumatic preschool experiences, and she was exhibiting separation anxiety well into the 2nd half of the school year. She would have to be pulled off me during morning drop-offs, and if she couldn’t see me at home, she would scream and cry hysterically. I have to admit, I entered Theraplay somewhat hesitantly.

I couldn’t understand how these simple activities would help my daughter with her separation anxiety. In 8-12 weeks, we started to see a significant improvement, and while I can’t explain how it worked, I could only exclaim, “Bu, it’s like magic!” I consider the results we saw as the byproducts of “Theraplay Magic.”

Even though I was the adult in the relationship, I, too, benefitted from Theraplay; the abandonment issues I grew up with were unearthed during the sessions and activities. My heart and soul began to heal, and right after our last celebration session, I reconnected with my mother, who I had not seen in 30 years.

While I am still on a journey of restoring and rebuilding my relationship with my daughter, Theraplay was our early intervention. Its magic was two-fold, working on a mother-daughter relationship that crossed two generations.
