Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
Parenting doesn't come with a manual, and every child is different. When communication breaks down, emotions run high, or family dynamics become challenging, it's easy to question whether you're doing enough or getting it right.
My approach helps parents move beyond simply managing behaviors to understanding what those behaviors may be communicating. Together, we'll strengthen communication, build emotional safety, navigate conflict with greater confidence, and develop practical tools that support both your child's growth and your own. When parents better understand themselves, they are often better able to understand and connect with their children.

Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support parents who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, reactive, or uncertain about how to navigate the challenges of parenting. Together, we explore how your own childhood experiences, attachment patterns, beliefs, and nervous-system responses may influence the way you respond to your children, particularly during moments of stress or emotional intensity. My work helps parents develop greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and compassion for themselves while learning to respond to their children from a more grounded and connected place. The goal is not to become a perfect parent, but to build a more secure, attuned relationship with your child while also healing the parts of yourself that may be activated through the parenting journey.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC, LCMHC
For new parents, it can be upsetting and frightening to have feelings about parenthood that don’t seem “right.”
For some, a morning run, a healthy diet and receiving help and support from family and friends are sufficient enough to get through the initial adjustment period. For others, talking to a therapist who specializes in dealing with new parenthood issues can be comforting, relieving and enlightening.
Therapists who have extensive education and training in peri-natal mental health understand that hormone changes, personal and family history, and social support are all vital factors in understanding and alleviating postpartum symptoms.
Common postpartum symptoms include:
Feeling overwhelmed and wondering if you should have become a mother in the first place
Feeling guilty due to high self-expectations
Not feeling “bonded” with the baby
Your thoughts are racing and you can’t quiet your mind
Feeling empty and numb as if you’re just going through the motions
Lack of focus and concentration
Being afraid that if you reach out for help, others will judge your inabilities
Thoughts of running away or leaving your baby behind
Being constantly in a state of worry
If one or more of the above symptoms resonates with you, I invite you to contact me today for a free consultation. Together, we’ll find the underlying issues that make you feel disconnected from your baby and create a strategy for moving forward. Contact me today to see how I can help.

Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
Parenting can be one of life's most rewarding experiences, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Many parents find themselves balancing the desire to raise emotionally healthy children while navigating their own stress, relationships, cultural values, and family expectations. Whether you are struggling with behavioural concerns, communication difficulties, co-parenting challenges, parenting through separation, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving, therapy can provide support and guidance.
At Min & Mind, we recognize that parenting does not happen in isolation. Our own childhood experiences, cultural backgrounds, and family dynamics often influence how we approach parenting today. We help parents better understand their children, strengthen connection, navigate conflict with confidence, and develop parenting strategies that align with their values. Our goal is to support families in creating relationships built on trust, understanding, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.
