Dear Bryan,
I thought to myself "What title should I give to you?" You are the "Last Therapist", the greatest honor you can have in someone's life. After work with you, I am able to continue on my own. I was running out of fingers and toes in counting the therapist I had seen in my lifetime. When you introduce yourself you need to say "I'm Bryan Post, your Last Therapist".

Dear Bryan:
I thought I would write you a letter on my feelings of what you have done for me and my family. Your book is an expression of you and your work which we have been blessed to get to experience.
After years of therapy, what amazed me was how quickly you got to the core of the problem, helped us to dig down very deep to look at it, to express it and heal from it. You made us get honest with ourselves, to stop blaming others for our problems and realize it takes work and commitment to…
Letter to Potential Post Institute Families
We are grateful for the opportunity to pen this open letter to you. We, along with our four children, completed Bryan's family intensive in May of 2005.
To truly convey the impact this therapeutic intensive had on our family, it would be best to first share with you what brought us to Florida for parent boot camp and then on to Oklahoma for the family intensive from our home in Northern California.
Dear Bryan,
Getting the experience I want here locally is going to be a challenge. There simply isn't anyone doing good sound attachment work. And besides, I have so much admiration for your work and the Stress Model™ you have developed. It is not only theoretically based and backed by research, but it’s completely applicable to everyday living. Too many approaches are either one or the other, not both. Are you open to some opportunities for me to train with you?
You keep up the good work, also!!!!! I love your style of telling the group there wasn't any…
Hello, B.,
I went to an adoption support group meeting last night and guess who was the topic of conversation? B. Bryan Post and family centered regulatory parenting! The therapist that runs the group (we used to co-facilitate it, but I had to drop out for awhile) was in your workshop at the conference. Your ideas really helped in turning her attitude around. She used to be much more cynical and almost "sneaky" in her approach for parents, but last night she had much more of a compassionate approach. It was so refreshing. I felt like I had always…
Bryan,
I just wanted to thank you for coming this week. I feel for the first time in 4 years that the school finally understands my daughter’s situation. Your visit with the school made such a difference.
We look forward to working with our daughter in dealing with the trauma experienced. Since you began consulting with us, we feel empowered to make a difference in helping our daughter heal.
Thanks, L.R.- Texas
Dear Bryan,
It has been some time since I attended your conference in Indianapolis with my sister but I wanted to take the time to thank you for your work! I am currently writing my Master's Thesis on RAD and the spiritual gifts inherent in the disorder and I am using your work to highlight the prenatal physiological formations of the stress response that is so evident in RAD disordered persons.
I am finding that your idea of looking at the person as being fundamentally 'scared' rather than angry is so helpful in my personal training as a therapist as…
Dear Bryan,
I just wanted to send you a brief message expressing my thanks and appreciation for the workshop that you presented, in Baton Rouge, on yesterday. It was very informative, refreshing and so enlightening to have a different viewpoint to process on human behavior. There was so much logic in what you presented in terms of stress factors being the primary contributor to behaviors that are viewed to be disruptive due to organic or other factors. Your presentation was awesome!
Thanks for the CD, also. I listened to it, on today, and it exceeded my expectations. I shared…
Last Spring, my family was in complete chaos. The school was threatening to send my 8 year-old daughter to alternative school because of her defiant behavior with her teacher and poor interaction with her peers.
My daughter had experienced trauma at the age 5. From that point in time, she had great difficulty coping in the school environment. Her original therapist worked with her concentrating on finding out her trauma experience. Due to her young age, we agreed to stop the sessions after 10 months without her learning how to cope with the trauma experience.
Hi Bryan,
I am writing because all is good here. I have been thinking lately about things we all have been through in the last 3 or more years And you have helped us see things with a different understanding than many others. So I write to you because I know you have seen us when we have been so down and discouraged and you have tried to share and encourage us to keep up the good work. I think you know that we are Christians and we lean on and rely on Him for everything. And if we meet a doctor…
