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.

i support parents by creating a compassionate space to explore the stresses, doubts, and emotional challenges that come with raising children. By helping parents understand their children's behaviour and regulate their own responses, we can help them to develop strategies that align with their values and their child's developmental needs. Therapy empowers parents to break intergenerational patterns, strengthen attachment, and find more confidence, clarity and connection in their parenting journey.

Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Therapy helps you step back and examine your approach to parenting with curiosity rather than judgment. Many of us parent on autopilot, unconsciously repeating patterns from our own childhood—sometimes helpful ones, sometimes not. A therapist can help you identify which patterns serve you and your family well, and which ones you might want to change.
You might discover that certain behaviors in your children trigger disproportionate reactions because they remind you of your own childhood experiences or unresolved issues. Understanding these triggers allows you to respond to your children more thoughtfully rather than reacting from old wounds. This self-awareness is transformative, breaking cycles that may have continued for generations.

Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Diploma in Clinical Supervision
With pressures from others as well as yourself, not to mention expectations from everyone around you, this is an area where we can feel that we are failing constantly. As a mum of four, I have probably felt what you are feeling. I offer a non-judgemental and safe place to discuss what is worrying you and to find ways forward for places you might yourself stuck in.

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.
