Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you worry about your child's emotional well-being or behaviour patterns? Are you struggling to figure out how to be a parent to a Gen Z or Gen Alpha kid? Being responsible for another human being and their well-being can evoke powerful feelings in parents, some of which stem from the present moment, and some of which are triggers from our own past hurts. At Transforming Emotions, our therapists are grounded in both emotion focused therapy and CBT allowing our team members to help you better manage your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviours as you help support your little one in doing the same. We know that parents are the most important resource in a child's life. Call to book a free consultation today to help us match you to the therapist who can best support you in your parenting journey.

Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
My approach to parenting may be unusual for many people in modern, Western cultures as it comes from a more traditional, growth oriented approach. I was raised in a modern, Euro-centric culture whose conformist, material values are not oriented toward community, family, or the individual. As a psychotherapist, I've noted that most of my clients struggled with a lack of parental support. This is true for both clients who come with problems and those approaching new opportunities.
From these clients and my own experience as child and parent, I feel parents are responsible for their children's material and spiritual growth. To play this role, a parent needs to be materially supportive, empathetic, understanding, aware and, most of all, have their own spiritual values. My prescription for successful parenting is simple: be a positive role model in all regards.
Once you have accomplished this, or are working to do so, you can address the problems you children may have. In most cases, or perhaps all cases, their problems will direct you to their solutions, which is to say solutions that are pertinent for them. It is possible, but it is rare, that how you conceive of their problems, and what you envisage as the solution to them, may be correct. It is more likely that you're wrong, and that finding the right answers will take patience and effort. Showing that you understand this is a lesson in itself.
As a parent, you are basically a therapist whose payment is fulfilling your obligation and winning your children's gratitude; not their future gratitude but their present gratitude. If you are not appreciated, then you probably are not helpful. Whether you are succeeding or failing, you must remain committed to helping them find solutions.
Like a therapist, you know very little compared to the complexity of the situations with which you are presented. You are obliged to provide energy, resources, encouragement, guidance, and protection. Your sincere advice is only as useful as it is appropriate, and even then it is likely mistaken. You have to know how to operate with responsibility but limited authority. Being a parent is not a privilege, it is an honor. You are called to play a role in your child's success or failure. You are not responsible for their success, but should take responsibility for their failures because you should understand the value of failure better than they do.
Most parents fail because they are not fully committed to being parents in the full sense of the word. What that means will to be determined by what your child thinks and feels. You are their counselor, you are at their service, and you must listen to them. As with moral virtue, you simply do your best.

Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
I support parents in understanding that children’s behavior is often an expression of unmet needs rather than something to control or correct. Instead of relying on discipline alone, we work on strengthening connection, responding to emotions with presence and understanding, and maintaining parental leadership through relationship rather than force. An important part of this work also involves parents becoming more aware of their own patterns, so they can show up in a more grounded and connected way with their children.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Every parent and every child is different, which means parenting challenges are endlessly varied—and endlessly exhausting. Drawing on my extensive experience as a life skills coach and my own journey as a mother and grandmother, I help you navigate whatever stage you're in: toddler meltdowns, teen rebellion, blended family conflicts, or adult children struggles. We'll address both the practical strategies and the emotional wounds underneath your parenting patterns. You'll receive personalized book recommendations, learn approaches that fit your family's unique dynamics, and work toward personal growth that benefits everyone. Better parenting starts with understanding yourself—your triggers, your history, and your capacity for change.
