Prue Keenan
Counsellor/Therapist, Graduate Diploma of Holistic Counselling
As a single parent to two boys, I have sought a lot of guidance over the years to learn better ways to parent, and therefore support myself to navigate the everyday parenting challenges. I have tools to share for relating to our kids better, communicating and understanding our needs (and triggers!!), and overall, building our relationships that really helps through hard times. I love sharing these with parents - we learn a lot from one another.

Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
As a wife, mother and daughter, I resonate with the joys and challenges of parenting.
I tried so hard to be a good mum that eventually I lost my way a little and made child-rearing like a mission to accomplish rather than a journey to be savoured and experienced.
This awareness led me to seek support and put the oxygen-mask on as they say.
Now my parenting experience has completely shifted, it is a lot more relaxed, satisfying and fun - and my children and husband feel it too.
My mission is to nurture and support other women who are mothers or are planning to be mothers to foster and engage in safe, respectful and loving relationships first within themselves and in turn their children and their family.
I also support mothers who have recently become empty-nesters and grappling with a sense of loss of identity and purpose.
