Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, Trauma-Informed Relationship Counsellor, Therapeutic coach
Hi, I’m Uri Bookman — a trauma-informed relationship therapist, counsellor, and coach (PACFA 30041). Parenting can be both rewarding and challenging, often bringing stress, conflict, or different expectations between partners.
I work with parents to strengthen communication, build emotional resilience, and create a more supportive family environment. For separated parents, I also offer Mediation & Co-Parenting Support — a trauma-informed, collaborative pathway that helps reduce conflict and establish respectful, sustainable agreements.
Together, we’ll focus on tools that bring clarity, compassion, and calm into your parenting journey — whether you’re navigating everyday struggles or the complexity of co-parenting after separation.
If you’d like support in creating a stronger, more connected family life, I offer a free 15-minute chat to see if this feels like the right fit.
