Psychologist, Psychologist, Registered Psychotherapist, Pre Registration Professionals
Regardless of the parenting issue you are struggling with, we are committed to helping you rediscover yourself by supporting you during the process of a psychological and physical transformation. We will listen to you and will examine and address all the major areas of psychological and physical health by using encouragement, fostering self-empowerment and personal responsibility so you can begin to own your health and become a powerful force in your recovery and for your children.
Parenting comes with many joys and many sorrows. As you take on the courageous job of slowly letting go of someone you love dearly, I will work with you to gain perspective on your situation, as well as to establish effective strategies in your home.
Parenting comes in many different forms. Families can be made through adoption, blended, legal arrangements or through traditional means. Parenting will often require communication and assertiveness skills. Building these skills can help improve the relationship between family members and decrease tensions.
Our team includes a Registered Psychotherapist and a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist along with several other therapists who are specialized in parenting issues.
SpeciaSpecializing in parenting support, I help you to navigate the challenges of understanding your role as a parent while addressing the emotional needs of your child. Parenting can be difficult, espescially since we often forget our own experiences as children, leading to misunderstandings with our little ones. Together, we will develop strategies to foster better communication, stronger bonds, and a nurturing environment for your child's growth and well-being.
Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy training for 5 years post psychotherapy training has enabled me to enhance my work with parents. Working with parents has always been part of my work as a speech pathologist and attachment therapist. I am very interested in the baby-mother/caregiver bond.
Kids can be a constant challenge. They grow fast and go through so many phases in their growth that it may seem impossible to keep up with their always changing needs, abilities, moods and behaviours! I will provide you a safe and comforting space where you can decompress from your endless parenting challenges and provide you tools to be more efficient and serene parent. I can provide help to you either on your own, with your partner or with the whole family.
Working with parents to create the home they feel proud of, that they are excited to come to at the end of each day is something I strive for in my practice. I am a parent. I have worked in parent coaching for years and can help you build or rebuild secure connection with your child. I take a very practical approach to parent support and will give you tools in addition to a deeper understanding of parenting techniques.
Relationships with family members can be particularly complex. With family, we often fall into old roles that may no longer serve us. You may be grieving the loss of a relationship you wished you had with a family member, or struggling with conflict and hurt feelings that keep getting re-triggered in each encounter. You may be facing challenges with parenting or trying to figure out the best ways to support your children. Relationship counselling can help you sort through the complexities of family dynamics, understand old roles and how you get pulled into them while working towards setting healthy boundaries in order to create more harmonious family dynamics.
