Counselling and Guidance for Parents

Are you distressed about your child’s behaviour?

  • Do you fear that your child is not fitting in socially?
  • Do you worry about aggressive behaviour or emotional outbursts?
  • Are you concerned about your child’s emotional difficulties due to trauma or stress from life changes?
  • Do you worry about your child’s performance in school?

Are you worried about your own problems or your ability to parent?

  • Are you having difficulty adjusting to the overwhelming responsibility of becoming a parent?
  • Have you started parenting in ways that you swore you never would?
  • Do you question your confidence or ability as a parent?
  • Are you suffering from burnout?
  • Do you feel like you give too much support and not receive enough for yourself?
  • Do you feel depressed about having lost touch with your own interests, passions, or desires?
  • Do you wish you were more patient and less angry or anxious as a parent?

Is your relationship with your spouse beginning to suffer?

  • Do you fight about how to parent your children?
  • Do you have a hard time seeing each other’s points of view?
  • Have you begun to lose that connection you once had?

In therapy, I help create a safe and supportive environment, where you can overcome your frustrations, disappointments, and worries about your children. I can coach you by sharing problem-solving strategies, and reinforcing the connection between good self-care and good parenting.
