B. Bryan Post

B. Bryan Post is one of America’s foremost child behavior experts. Founder of the Post Institute for Family-Centered Therapy which specializes in working with adults, children and families who struggle with issues related to early life trauma and the impact of trauma on the development of the mind body system. A renowned clinician, lecturer, and author of several books (including Beyond Consequences, Logic and Control, The Great Behavior Breakdown and From Fear to Love), video, and audio programs, Bryan has traveled throughout the world providing expert treatment and consultation to a variety of groups. An internationally recognized specialist in the treatment of emotional and behavioral issues, he specializes in a holistic family-based treatment approach that addresses the underlying interactive dynamics of the entire family, a neurophysiologic process he refers to as, “The secret life of the family.” Post contends that these same dynamics become obvious and are visibly apparent in every relationship.

He holds three degrees in the field of social work: a Bachelors of Social Work degree from East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma; a Masters of Social Work degree from the University of Texas at Arlington; and a Doctoral degree in Social Work from Columbus University School of Public Administration. Bryan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

A maverick in the mental health field, Bryan broke from traditional teachings in the late 1990’s and developed a dynamic theoretical model of human behavior which he coined the Stress Model (TM). When fully understood and applied to nearly any situation this model can reveal underlying unconscious expressive states which can transform relationship dynamics. Using The Stress Model (TM) theory, he has gone on to develop both Family-Centered Regulatory Parenting and Regulatory Therapy which both have been taught at the university level, garnering Post international recognition. Of noted interest is also the fact that he has woven his therapy model into breakthrough educational experiences that are referred to as POST Camps for adults, parents, and therapists. These rapid results programs have been changing the lives of struggling adults, parents, and families for the past several years.

He lives with his wife Kristi and their 3 daughters in Oklahoma.
