Are you trying to figure out how to best help your child or teen?  Do you feel like you just don't know what approach to take or what else you can try to get things on track?  Are you surprised by how triggered you can become by your child's behaviours?  Whether you are a parent of a preschooler or a teenager, we can work together to help you have a better understanding of your child and their behaviours and feel more connected.  Being a parent (and particularly a mother) is the most magical, challenging, rewarding, and exhausting role. 

​

Whether you could use just a couple of sessions to gain some tips and ensure you are on the right track, or more in-depth work about some very challenging issues, we can work together so that you can show up as the parent you want to be.  When we're struggling, we often just need some clarity and direction.  A plan in place.  To be heard.  We also focus on the parent-child connection, so you can use the bond with your child as the ultimate parenting tool.  When we provide our child with love, empathy, and safety, they can feel secure enough to make positive changes.  And we can enjoy our children and role as a parent.  Many times, the child or teen may benefit from sessions for themselves but I will also meet with parents for their own sessions to either provide emotional support or practical strategies and problem-solving (most often, both).
