Acknowledgments

From Jamie

I would like to acknowledge the support of my family, friends, and colleagues throughout this process. In particular, my husband Francisco not only has provided encouragement and affirmation but also has entertained our toddler so I could carve out time to write. I have been surrounded by positive, co-regulating relationships that have influenced me at every stage of my life. To my mom and dad, Lynn and Keith Olsen, who always show up. To my siblings, Geoff, Laura, and Jennifer Olsen, who embrace their nerdy sister. To the handful of teachers who inspired my love of learning: Mr. Robert Ludwigsen, Mr. Earl Kyle, Mr. Jim Anderson, to name a few. To my mentor, Freddie Berger, who took a chance on a new grad. To countless friends and colleagues who engage in conversations that spark curiosity and keep me grounded. To a faith community who reminds me that a relationship with Christ serves as the ultimate model of how to see others and myself.

I am particularly grateful for my co-author, Dr. Ashley Taylor, who helped to bring balance to the language and content of the book. I have learned a tremendous amount from Ashley over the years, and learned even more when writing this book. Thank you, Ashley, for your knowledge, expertise, compassion, and collaboration—you made this process enjoyable and motivating. Let’s do it again soon!

From Ashley

It has been an honor to partner and collaborate with my co-author Dr. Jamie Chaves. Her passion, vision, and plan made this idea into a reality! Thank you, Jamie, for your patience, dedication, organization, and diligence in getting this done. I really enjoyed partnering with you on this journey!

I want to thank my family, my two sweet boys, Jackson and Henry, who have cheered me on and encouraged me every step of the way. To my husband, Hunt Dougherty, I could not have done this without your patience and support. You always believe in me, which helps me to believe in myself—thank you! To my parents, Claudia and Allen Taylor, and my sisters Amanda Taylor Nava and Samantha Taylor Suehiro, thank you for always being there for me.

I want to especially thank so many who have been my teachers, mentors, and educators through the years—those of you whose inspiration, calm, and knowledge have guided me in my professional journey and allowed me to continue my path toward growth and development, including Dr. Esther Chon, Dr. Barbara Stroud, Dr. Mona Delahooke, Dr. Shireen Sonefeldt, Dr. Joy Malik-Hasbrook, and Dr. Daniel Franklin.

Joint Acknowledgments

We would like to thank Hunt Dougherty for his creative contributions in the production of the images throughout the book. Thank you for your patience and artistic eye.

We both are incredibly grateful and would like to give a special thanks to Dr. Tina Payne Bryson for her knowledge into the IPNB framework, and for her vision of creating a multidisciplinary therapy practice informed by IPNB. Without The Center for Connection, we would have never met. Tina, you have been an inspiration to us for many years. Thank you so much for your guidance, wisdom, and generosity of spirit. Your dedication and passion for bringing people together is amazing, and we are truly so appreciative and full of gratitude for your support throughout this process!

We are grateful for the families and teachers we have worked with over the years who have helped shape us as clinicians. As a general note, all the names and identifying details in the vignettes and scenarios have been fabricated, and edited to protect the privacy of individuals and families.
