Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Parenting can be both the most meaningful and most challenging thing you do in life. Especially when you have parents with differing ideas about how to raise children. Even if you are on the same page, parenting challenges can bringing up strong emotions and self-doubt. You might get triggered by your own unresolved issues from childhood with your own parents. How do you support a child’s needs while caring for your own? How do you support a neurodivergent child? There is no single “right” way to parent and if you have more than one child you will quickly find out that one size doesn't fit all. Therapy will help you think more clearly about your relationships with your child(ren) and partner (if applicable), build confidence, and develop practical strategies that align with your values. Self awareness as well as information on different personality types can help you respond thoughtfully rather than reactively in everyday family life.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults navigating the emotional and psychological demands of parenting, including those parenting alone or alongside other significant pressures. Parenting often brings long-standing patterns into sharper focus, affecting identity, relationships, boundaries, and how people respond under stress.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how parenting experiences interact with internal expectations, responsibilities, and emotional load. Rather than focusing on parenting techniques, sessions centre on understanding how you are impacted by the role and how different parts of you respond to it. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Therapy helps you step back and examine your approach to parenting with curiosity rather than judgment. Many of us parent on autopilot, unconsciously repeating patterns from our own childhood—sometimes helpful ones, sometimes not. A therapist can help you identify which patterns serve you and your family well, and which ones you might want to change.
You might discover that certain behaviors in your children trigger disproportionate reactions because they remind you of your own childhood experiences or unresolved issues. Understanding these triggers allows you to respond to your children more thoughtfully rather than reacting from old wounds. This self-awareness is transformative, breaking cycles that may have continued for generations.

Ashley Horsley
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, MA, Post MA Dip, BACP Accred
A mother needs to be only good enough, said the brilliant Winnicott many years ago. We, as parents, will never be perfect. But we need only to be good enough. I can help you learn how to be the best version of yourself with your kids which includes really understanding what children in general, and your child in particular, need and needs. And what you need too which sometimes, if not often, gets forgotten in this dynamic.

Gemma Autumn
Counsellor/Therapist, Integrative Adult and Adolescent Counsellor Cert, PgDip, MBACP Accredited
As a trained child and adolescent therapist, my work has often involved working with parents on issues relating to their own parenting. This often not only covers the relationship they have with their children but also reflecting on their own experience of what it was like to be parented when they were a child. Having children can often trigger thoughts, feelings and behaviour we have carried over from our own childhoods.
