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.

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.

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.

The Art Of Healing
Marriage and Family Therapist, RTC, CT
Parenting can be deeply rewarding—but also overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to support your child while managing your own emotions and responsibilities. I work with parents to build practical tools for emotional regulation, communication, and navigating challenging behaviours, while also helping you stay grounded and present in your role. Together, we explore patterns, triggers, and family dynamics so you can respond with more intention rather than react from stress. This is a space to feel supported, gain clarity, and strengthen your confidence as a parent—so you can show up for your child in a way that feels calm, connected, and aligned.
