Alexina Baldini
Psychologist, B.B.Sc., G.D.A.C.P., M.Psych.(For.), F.A.P.S.
One of the roles that requires the most skill, we are often not trained to be parents until starting to think about having a family, and then it is often just focused on the giving birth process. We then see parents who may be reluctant to ask for support until their situation feels desperate and their children are demanding, clingy or displaying other challenging behaviours that prompt help-seeking. Our therapists provide supportive guidance to parents using a range of treatment modalities that include attachment-focused therapy and practical environmental analysis and change implementation.

Jumping Hurdles Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Clinical Supervisor, Master of Counselling
Parenting is not easy. Having the skills and knowledge to enable children to grow up making the correct choices and become responsibility is the answer to being a good parent. Parenting assists parents to focus on planning so that things go right- it enables tem to become a rereflective listener, enables them to be soloution foccused and not a rescurer. Importantly it gives them the skills not to be a dectective to their children but a support person their young can rely on.

Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
Parenting problems need wisdom to resolve not just techniques. Super Nanny I am not. But a wise father I am. Parenting needs to be armed with information and training to deal with situations used to come from the elders who were treated as wise and respected as such whereas nowadays the knowledge gained form the internet does not teach application only gives knowledge and this is where we need to work more to help assimilate the knowledge and using what we now know fo the mind brain interface and child development we are more informed and can with help become better parents and teachers and leaders to children and adolescents.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
Working with teens & their families has given me extensive experience in supporting parents. This has included providing information & knowledge on how best to support their parenting. Every parent does the best they can & the guidance I provide is centered around how parents they can adapt & improve their parenting rather than blaming or criticizing. Its important that parents feel comfortable to work with me in a collaborative way otherwise their is no room for change so I focus on building a relationship with parents where they feel safe and comfortable to share experiences and work with me. No parent is perfect & usually working in improving parenting is about learning how best to support your kids & their individual, & collective, needs.
