Tacit provides support to parents who have younger children who are struggling with a wide variety of issues - we do not work directly with the children themselves. But rather, we help educate the parents about the child's issues, and help the parents learn effective coping strategies that can then be implemented with the child in the moment/as needed.
I love to work with parents who are struggling to parent their children. We'll look for patterns that come from root issues that may be impeding clients' ability to parent. Psychoeducation is important in this area so new skills can be developed. I supply parenting resources and believe the connection and attachment we develop with our children early in their lives creates a calm well adjusted child.
Parenting involves a lot of work and can bring up a variety of frustrations. Whether you are struggling with your own thoughts and feelings towards parenting, or struggling with the behaviours of your child(ren), I will work with you on strategies for coping as well as looking at the larger family dynamics to ensure the best support for you during these difficult times. I will help support you as we work through the thoughts and feelings you are having. Focusing on therapeutic relationship and building trust allows me to help support you while using a solution-focused lens.
If seeking parenting based support I can help you deepen your connection and improve communication with your child, while further supporting you as a parent in developing confidence in your ability to manage the many stressors of parenting. My approach to parenting support is highly effective in not only modifying unwanted behaviours, but increasing mutual trust, and instilling life long skills that will prove invaluable as your child(ren) develop towards adulthood.
We offer general parenting support and Circle of Security Parenting (COS-P). COS-P is a well researched relationship based parenting program for parents/caregivers of children from birth to age 6.
Parenting can feel like the hardest thing you have ever encountered. We have a myth that parenting is something you should just know how to do, and that leaves many parents struggling. It is common for people to need help. I can support you in understanding child development, what is normal development and what is potentially a problem, and I can support you with strategies to improve your relationship with your child. Please contact me if you would like to set up a free intake and we can get started on the process of helping you move forward with your future.
Parenting is one of the hardest things to do as a human, but it doesn't have to be. Through compassionate and honest communication, you can learn to accept and take on the challenges that come with raising a family.
When working with parenting, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.
Most of my 30 year career has involved working with parents on parenting and discipline strategies. Now I incorporate more spiritual concepts in my work with parents. I'm also the parent of two grown children.
As a mum of five kids, I get it. I get how hard it is to be the parent you hoped to be, when your kids are struggling and the work is piling up and the time is short. Often parenting can bring up struggles from our past, default ways of relating which we don't want our kids to experience. As we face our own pain, we're able to heal both for our own sake and the sake of our kids.
They're worth it, and you're worth it.
I also get how hard it is to prioritise your own healing. That's why sessions are available both in-person (to get away from the stressors at home and work) and online (to access therapy in the small window of time you have available).
Parenting comes with unique challenges and joys. I provide guidance and support to help you navigate the complexities of raising children, fostering positive family dynamics and enhancing your parenting skills.
Parenting brings up everything unintegrated, un-dealt with in our selves will easily bring up a lot from our own childhood, and to be in the vulnerability of that, at the same time as caring for a child, depending on us, calls for gentleness and the release of the need to perform according to outer ideals and ideas. As parents, we more than anywhere else, need to okay with being imperfect, and to learn how to see, and meet with another being intimately in the midst of that.
Children read us all the time, and if what we say don't match how we "walk the talk" they get confused - more than being and doing the right thing, our children need us to be authentic and honest, so they can know us and see us. To be a role model, doesn't mean to do the right thing all the time, but to not use power where we feel lack, and instead allow them to see your humanness
With an expertise in supporting parents for over a decade, my focus is to help moms weed through all the challenges, overwhelm, uncertainty and guilt of motherhood into a more empowered life. Igniting mindful shift is a compassionate and reflective way to navigate this process. When we shift our perspective, we can learn to connect with our inner-wisdom, and begin to live a more fulfilled life with a sense of purpose. I offer in-person and online counselling sessions for moms and couples that are experiencing challenges with the additional pressure and considerations of parenthood. I also offer educational workshops and classes that provide tools to help empower parents on their journey to better relationships with their children and with each other.
Parenting is one of the most difficult tasks we humans encounter in our lives. If you love and care for your children it is exhausting on a daily basis. But their are ways to develop better relationship boundaries with your children that will still allow you to have a loving and caring relationship with them. Sometimes you just need the right kind of support.
Parenting is very hard. As a mother of two, grandmother of 8 and an aunt and grand-aunt to many as well as having studied parenting I know what works. Parenting with love and logic is my preferred method. Use necessary discipline combined with unwavering love.
If you are an HSP (Highly Sensitive Parent) wanting to heal yourself to become the best model for your child I can help. It can be very difficult parenting when you are overwhelmed and triggered by your own emotions. I can provide the tools to help you emotionally regulate so you can parent from a confident place in control of your own emotions. Please contact me for a free 15 minute consultation today.

We look at your current parenting style and design a program for you to help break through the issues.
Parenting is one of life's greatest challenges. There are thousands of books on it because there are so many opinions on how to do it well. I help clients think out loud, explore challenges they may have in their relationships with their kids and find out what their goals are so I can help them achieve them. Some psycho education around child development can be extremely helpful for parents to build effective boundaries with their kids which ultimately leads to stronger and deeper connections with them.
