Cameron Wharram
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Parenting is the perfect example of "Full Catastrophe Living". Becoming clear and remaining grounded in your values and emotionally-regulated when you make decisions about your child's future or respond to their behaviour is the foundation of parenting. Build on that foundation is learning how to effectively communicate with your child, your partner, and yourself .

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.

Parenting can be especially challenging when you're feeling overwhelmed, emotionally triggered, or trying to heal from your own childhood experiences. Whether you're a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) or simply want to break unhealthy patterns, together we'll strengthen your emotional regulation, build confidence in your parenting, and help you respond to your child with greater calm and connection. My goal is to help you become the parent you want to be while creating a healthier, more secure foundation for your family.
For:
parents healing from narcissistic or emotionally neglectful childhoods,
parents struggling with burnout,
parents who lose their temper and feel guilty afterward,
parents who want to break generational cycles.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
I love to work with parents who are struggling to parent their children. We'll look for patterns that come from root issues that may be impeding clients' ability to parent. Psychoeducation is important in this area so new skills can be developed. I supply parenting resources and believe the connection and attachment we develop with our children early in their lives creates a calm well adjusted child.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Parenting can bring enormous love and meaning, while also stirring up stress, self-doubt, frustration, guilt, and old patterns from your own upbringing. You may find yourself reacting in ways you don’t fully understand, struggling to balance your child’s needs with your own, or worrying that you’re getting it wrong. I offer a supportive space to slow things down, understand what gets activated in you as a parent, and respond with greater awareness and intention. Using mindfulness, relational awareness, attachment theory and a compassionate exploration of family patterns, we can help you build more trust in yourself and create a more connected relationship with your child.
