Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Becoming a parent often opens up feelings about our own parents. We often are trying to "do better" for our kids, but this can have its challenges. I support clients who are trying to understand their parental roles, heal from historic family wounds, and find balance and self-compassion in their lives.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults navigating the emotional and psychological demands of parenting, including those parenting alone or alongside other significant pressures. Parenting often brings long-standing patterns into sharper focus, affecting identity, relationships, boundaries, and how people respond under stress.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how parenting experiences interact with internal expectations, responsibilities, and emotional load. Rather than focusing on parenting techniques, sessions centre on understanding how you are impacted by the role and how different parts of you respond to it. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Grief is a deeply personal experience that unfolds differently for everyone. There is no "right" way to grieve, and healing rarely follows a predictable path. My role is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can process your loss at your own pace, make sense of the emotions that arise, and gradually find ways to move forward while honoring the significance of what you've lost.
