Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Every family deserves to have harmony and respect. When one person is struggling with some issues, it is possible that the whole family suffers as well. Family therapy helps the family address their underlying emotions, ineffective communication patterns and maladaptive behaviors in order to improve their communication skills and resolve their conflicts.

It takes a Village to Raise a Child: Parent Coaching at MindFit
“The thing about parenting rules is there aren’t any.” That’s what makes it so difficult.” – Ewan McGregor
From emotion regulation challenges to ADHD to social media use, there are no shortage of parenting challenges. MindFit Parent Coaching aims to help make your job a little easier.
Workouts (sessions) are designed to improve children’s emotional, cognitive, behavioural and health-related outcomes by fostering parenting skills and improving the quality of parent-child relationships.
Techniques:
Collaborative Problem Solving
• Developed by Dr. Ross Greene at Harvard Medical School, CPS is an extremely effective technique for helping youth learn lagging skills in the areas of flexibility, frustration tolerance, and adaptability.
• CPS is based on the premise that children do well if they can (not if they want to) and your explanation of why a child is behaving poorly guides the intervention. More specifically, CPS sees challenging behaviours as resulting from skill deficits and not motivation deficits.
• Consequently, the goal is to help parents learn to solve common problems/challenges (e.g., screen time, homework, routine difficulties) with their youth collaboratively and proactive, while teaching youth new skills along the way.
Emotion Coaching/Emotion-Focused Parenting
• Parents and caregivers learn to recognize and attend to their and their child’s emotions and use emotions as moments for teaching. Parents are also taught to listen with empathy, validate their child’s feelings, and meet their child’s needs (e.g., offering a hug if a child is sad).. When a child calms down, parents learn to help their child label their feelings with words and then discuss practical coping strategies to deal with triggers and improve self-regulation skills
Positive Parenting Interventions/Strength-Based Parenting
• Strength-based parenting helps parents to acknowledge and encourage a child’s unique abilities, talents, and skills (i.e., strengths).
• Practical advice and interventions (e.g., ways to identify parent strengths and children’s strengths, how to have conversations for connection) is provided to help set children up for success, maximize potential, and nurture and foster children’s talents and strengths.
At MindFit, we only provide programs and workouts that are backed by science and based on real data. You can expect to work with skilled clinicians who aim to create a safe, non-judgemental, de-stigmatizing, compassionate and welcoming environment. Sessions are aimed to at being short term and time limited, handouts and resources are provided to help you implement your new toolbox of strategies and skills, and questionnaires/check-ins are used to measure/track change.

Sarah Glinski
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
Raising a child may be one of the most rewarding experiences one can have but it is also one of the most challenging and confusing. It is normal for parents to disagree (with their children and their co-parent), to feel overwhelmed, to feel shame or regret, to have anxiety or to just be at a loss. Seeking professional counselling to help you through parenting challenges can alleviate stress, bring clarity to the “big picture”, and secure you with the tools to communicate more effectively, build respectful, healthy family dynamics, and understand your children better. I provide free consultation phone calls to determine whether I am the right fit to help you through these challenges.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel overwhelmed, unsure, or frustrated in your role as a parent? Many parents grow up carrying messages about how they “should” parent or feeling pressure to get it “right”, which can make it hard to trust your instincts or manage the day-to-day stress of raising children.
These feelings are not a sign that you’re failing—they’re natural responses to the responsibility, love, and challenges of parenting. What matters is how you respond to them in the moment. Together, we can explore your experiences, strengthen your coping and communication strategies, and support you in feeling more confident, present, and lighter as a parent. You care deeply for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.
