Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
Walking that line between structure and discipline and allowing your children to grow and explore on their own is not easy. Finding that 'balance' - and still finding time for yourself and for your career and partner - needs the support of community not always available to help. I will listen to you while you find your own unique way, occasionally drawing on and sharing my experience as a mother, single parent, foster parent, wife, daughter and career woman. Being a parent is not only the most important job, I think it's also (perhaps) the hardest job (to do well). I believe an important part of parenting is to teach children to be curious, mindful, accepting and respectful of the world and to help them understand their own needs and how to address and fill those needs, themselves, by the time they reach adulthood.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting parents focuses on creating a collaborative, non-judgmental space to explore the joys and challenges of raising children. I help parents understand the dynamics within their family, identify patterns that may contribute to stress or conflict, and develop practical strategies to strengthen communication and connection. Using evidence-informed approaches, including behavioural guidance, emotional regulation techniques, and problem-solving skills, I support parents in building confidence, fostering healthy relationships, and promoting positive development for their children. My goal is to empower parents to navigate challenges with clarity, patience, and resilience while nurturing a supportive and balanced family environment.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space for parents navigating the challenges of raising children and managing family dynamics. I understand that parenting can be stressful, overwhelming, and sometimes isolating, and believes that small, intentional changes can create meaningful improvements in family life.
I work collaboratively with parents to develop practical strategies for communication, boundary-setting, stress management, and problem-solving. My approach emphasizes empathy, validation, and building confidence in parenting skills, helping parents feel more grounded, effective, and connected to their children.
I offer a safe and compassionate environment to explore challenges, strengthen relationships, and foster a positive and balanced family life—one supportive step at a time.

Parenting is an extremely complex and unique experience, that doesn't come with a manual.

Dan Drybrough
Psychologist, B.A., B.Ed., Dip.Ed., M.Sc., Registered Psychologist
Parenting isn’t always easy—and it’s okay to ask for help. I offer practical, supportive guidance for parents facing challenges with kids or teens, family stress, or finding balance at home. Together, we’ll work through tough moments and build skills to help you feel more confident, connected, and at ease in your parenting. I utilize my professional background and expertise, along with my own experiences of parenting three boys (and now men) over the last 30 years.

Shelley Westergard
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Counselling Psychology, MACP, Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, BA, Addictions Certificate
I am a mother of three and I can attest to the challenges that come and go with each stage for them and for us. When I work with parents I do so in a way to work with them for themself. I believe in order to have a healthy relationship with our kids and our partner, we need to work with ourselves first. I thank parents for wanting to work on their parenting and relationship with their children. This is not an easy quest to ask for, but one of the most important. I work with parents separately or with a parent and child together. I use the same approach as I would for couples, with emotionally-focused therapy. Addressing patterns, cycles, underlying hurts, and needs and aiming to create a safe and respectful space for communication.
