Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you worry about your child's emotional well-being or behaviour patterns? Are you struggling to figure out how to be a parent to a Gen Z or Gen Alpha kid? Being responsible for another human being and their well-being can evoke powerful feelings in parents, some of which stem from the present moment, and some of which are triggers from our own past hurts. At Transforming Emotions, our therapists are grounded in both emotion focused therapy and CBT allowing our team members to help you better manage your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviours as you help support your little one in doing the same. We know that parents are the most important resource in a child's life. Call to book a free consultation today to help us match you to the therapist who can best support you in your parenting journey.

Aaron Chin
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
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.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
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.

EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Parenting encompasses a profound journey of nurturing secure bonds and healing past wounds. Parenting becomes a delicate ballet of giving protection, warmth, and unconditional love because it is based on the concept that early attachment experiences create the foundation of emotional development. Trauma, whether inherited or experienced, can ripple through generations, influencing parenting styles and relational dynamics. Therapy offers a space for parents to explore their own attachment patterns and address unresolved traumas, fostering greater self-awareness and empathy. By cultivating secure attachments and nurturing emotional resilience in their children, parents can break the cycle of intergenerational trauma, paving the way for a future filled with love, connection, and healing.
