Melissa MacNeill
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, Certified EFIT, EFCT, and EFFT Therapist, MACP
Our children don't come into our lives with an instruction manual, and with so many opinions it can be difficult to know how to best respond to their needs and difficulties. I work to help parents become more accessible, responsive, and engaged with their children. The better we're able to consistently respond to our children, the more safe and secure they'll feel to venture out into, and explore, the wonders of the world around them. I'll help you to better understand the interactions that are taking place between you and your child. I'll work with you as a process consultant to help you experience what it's like to engage in a new way. This process can be transformational for the relationship and the family as a whole.
The relationship between children and their parents doesn't end at adulthood. The transition to adulthood can be confusing, scary, and difficult for parents and children. We never out-grow our need to feel safe, loved, and accepted by our family. I use Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) to assist parents and adult children struggling with these important relationships.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Parenting is one of the most difficult tasks we humans encounter in our lives. If you love and care for your children it is exhausting on a daily basis. But their are ways to develop better relationship boundaries with your children that will still allow you to have a loving and caring relationship with them. Sometimes you just need the right kind of support.

Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
My approach to parenting may be unusual for many people in modern, Western cultures as it comes from a more traditional, growth oriented approach. I was raised in a modern, Euro-centric culture whose conformist, material values are not oriented toward community, family, or the individual. As a psychotherapist, I've noted that most of my clients struggled with a lack of parental support. This is true for both clients who come with problems and those approaching new opportunities.
From these clients and my own experience as child and parent, I feel parents are responsible for their children's material and spiritual growth. To play this role, a parent needs to be materially supportive, empathetic, understanding, aware and, most of all, have their own spiritual values. My prescription for successful parenting is simple: be a positive role model in all regards.
Once you have accomplished this, or are working to do so, you can address the problems you children may have. In most cases, or perhaps all cases, their problems will direct you to their solutions, which is to say solutions that are pertinent for them. It is possible, but it is rare, that how you conceive of their problems, and what you envisage as the solution to them, may be correct. It is more likely that you're wrong, and that finding the right answers will take patience and effort. Showing that you understand this is a lesson in itself.
As a parent, you are basically a therapist whose payment is fulfilling your obligation and winning your children's gratitude; not their future gratitude but their present gratitude. If you are not appreciated, then you probably are not helpful. Whether you are succeeding or failing, you must remain committed to helping them find solutions.
Like a therapist, you know very little compared to the complexity of the situations with which you are presented. You are obliged to provide energy, resources, encouragement, guidance, and protection. Your sincere advice is only as useful as it is appropriate, and even then it is likely mistaken. You have to know how to operate with responsibility but limited authority. Being a parent is not a privilege, it is an honor. You are called to play a role in your child's success or failure. You are not responsible for their success, but should take responsibility for their failures because you should understand the value of failure better than they do.
Most parents fail because they are not fully committed to being parents in the full sense of the word. What that means will to be determined by what your child thinks and feels. You are their counselor, you are at their service, and you must listen to them. As with moral virtue, you simply do your best.

Reg Fleming
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., RMFT, RCC
As a registered family therapist, I see the parent, parents or caregivers as key to successful therapy for families. Parents are the most important figures in a child or adolescent's life. As you may know it is a very difficult task being a parent, and mistakes happen. Getting support and working with a family therapist who is experienced and qualified is critical to addressing issues in the family that are stuck in problematic patterns of reactivity. Emotionally our strongest attachments are with parents as children, and this adds to the intensity or activation. Humans cannot solve problems when they are activated because we are in a threatened state - anxiety. Seeking a helpful family therapist can help.
