Alexina Baldini
Psychologist, B.B.Sc., G.D.A.C.P., M.Psych.(For.), F.A.P.S.
One of the roles that requires the most skill, we are often not trained to be parents until starting to think about having a family, and then it is often just focused on the giving birth process. We then see parents who may be reluctant to ask for support until their situation feels desperate and their children are demanding, clingy or displaying other challenging behaviours that prompt help-seeking. Our therapists provide supportive guidance to parents using a range of treatment modalities that include attachment-focused therapy and practical environmental analysis and change implementation.
