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.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RPQ, BA, LLB, CSAT, CPTT
The process of raising children can be fraught with questions, uncertainty and it can bring up parts of ourselves that we didn't know were there or that we had promised ourselves we would never let come out with our own children. We try to balance protection, care and responsiveness and sometimes we lack support, knowledge or positive examples of how to have the kind of parent-child relationship we desire. I have four children of my own and can relate. I am here to help you connect the dots, weigh the issues, process your past and family or origin traits to come into the role of parent in a way that feels grounded, positive and authentically you.

Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
Parenting doesn't come with a manual, and every child is different. When communication breaks down, emotions run high, or family dynamics become challenging, it's easy to question whether you're doing enough or getting it right.
My approach helps parents move beyond simply managing behaviors to understanding what those behaviors may be communicating. Together, we'll strengthen communication, build emotional safety, navigate conflict with greater confidence, and develop practical tools that support both your child's growth and your own. When parents better understand themselves, they are often better able to understand and connect with their children.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
Parenting can be rewarding, but it can also bring stress, uncertainty, and emotional challenges at every stage of a child’s development. Therapy supports parents in strengthening communication, improving coping skills, navigating behavioural concerns, and fostering healthier family relationships. I use Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) to support parents and families.
