Ida Uzelman
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC-P, RTC
Parenting can be one of life’s most rewarding experiences, but it also comes with challenges, uncertainty, and moments of self-doubt. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where parents can explore strategies for effective communication, boundary-setting, and nurturing relationships with their children. Together, we focus on building confidence, managing stress, and creating a family environment that supports both your child’s growth and your own well-being.

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.
