Family Therapy
Family therapy provides a collaborative space to better understand and address the relationships, patterns, and circumstances affecting the family as a whole. Sessions may focus on communication, conflict, attachment and relationships, emotional and behavioural concerns, family transitions, neurodevelopmental differences, or strengthening connections between family members.
Grounded in attachment, family systems, and ecological perspectives, therapy considers not only individual experiences, but how family relationships and patterns interact with the broader environments in which families live—including school, work, community, culture, and significant life circumstances. Therapy supports families in developing greater understanding, strengthening relationships, and creating healthier patterns of communication and everyday functioning.
Parent Consultation
I have been providing counselling and mental health support for children, adolescents and families since 2008. I am passionate about helping parents navigate inevitable challenges, and celebrating underrated wins. Consultations are available for parents and caregivers seeking guidance and practical strategies to better understand and support their child and the whole family. I use an attachment-based, developmental and systemic approach. Along with psycho-education, we work together to identify areas of concern and sensitively work out strategies.
Whether as a stand alone session or post assessment to discuss application of recomendations in more depth. Sessions may focus on developmental concerns, behaviour and emotional regulation, ADHD and executive functioning, learning and school concerns, anxiety, family transitions, helping your child deal with separation and divorce, co-parenting loss of a loved on or pet, etc. Parent consultations provide an opportunity to explore concerns, better understand the factors contributing to a child’s behaviour, and develop individualized strategies for home, school, and family life.
