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.

Dr. Christine Sauer
Life Coach, MD;ND
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.

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.

Meredith Mpinga
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CPC
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).
