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.

I support parents in understanding their child’s behaviour, strengthening connection, and developing effective, practical parenting strategies.

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.

Victoria is British Columbia's capital city and a major retirement destination, giving it an older demographic profile than most Canadian cities — one that generates consistent demand for therapists working with aging, loss, caregiver stress, and the psychological dimensions of life transitions in later years. The city's government-worker culture, combined with the University of Victoria and Royal Roads University, creates a well-educated population that is generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Island Health provides public mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving Oak Bay, Saanich, and the Inner Harbour area. Victoria's separation from Metro Vancouver by water means specialist therapist access can be limited in some areas, with telehealth filling an important gap for clients seeking a specific type of match.
