Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting parents focuses on creating a collaborative, non-judgmental space to explore the joys and challenges of raising children. I help parents understand the dynamics within their family, identify patterns that may contribute to stress or conflict, and develop practical strategies to strengthen communication and connection. Using evidence-informed approaches, including behavioural guidance, emotional regulation techniques, and problem-solving skills, I support parents in building confidence, fostering healthy relationships, and promoting positive development for their children. My goal is to empower parents to navigate challenges with clarity, patience, and resilience while nurturing a supportive and balanced family environment.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, LLB, CSAT
The process of raising children can be fraught with questions, uncertainty and it can bring up parts of ourselves that we didn't know were there or that we had promised ourselves we would never let come out with our own children. We try to balance protection, care and responsiveness and sometimes we lack support, knowledge or positive examples of how to have the kind of parent-child relationship we desire. I have four children of my own and can relate. I am here to help you connect the dots, weigh the issues, process your past and family or origin traits to come into the role of parent in a way that feels grounded, positive and authentically you.

Viewpoint Calgary Psychological Services
Psychologist, RPsych
Parenting is one of the most rewarding roles in life, but it can also be one of the most exhausting. When daily life turns into a cycle of power struggles, meltdowns, sibling conflict, or constant stress, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, second-guess every decision, and run on empty. You don't have to carry the heavy weight of parental burnout alone, nor do you have to choose between strict discipline and chaos.
At Viewpoint Psychological Services in Calgary, our therapists offer a supportive, judgment-free space to help you rebuild confidence and calm in your home. Using practical, evidence-based approaches—including attachment-focused care, positive parenting frameworks, and family-centered support—we help you untangle daily friction and create systems that work for your unique family.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Manage Challenging Behaviours: Master clear, gentle, and effective strategies to navigate tantrums, set firm boundaries, and handle big emotions without constant yelling or battles.
- Strengthen Family Connection: Foster mutual respect and open communication with your children, turning daily routines into opportunities for genuine closeness.
- Replenish Parental Well-Being: Unpack parental guilt and stress, giving you the tools to recharge your own energy so you can parent from a place of resilience and steady calm.
You don't have to navigate the stress of parenting by trial and error. Let’s partner together to restore harmony in your home and help your entire family thrive.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are navigating parenting, you may feel stretched in ways you never anticipated. You want to respond with patience and wisdom, yet stress, fatigue, and your own history can surface in the hardest moments. You may question whether you are doing enough, doing it right, or unintentionally repeating patterns you hoped to change.
At Selah Counselling, we support parents with compassion and practical guidance. We understand that parenting activates your own attachment history and nervous system. Together, we explore your child’s needs alongside your responses to help you build regulation, consistent boundaries, and connected communication. Our goal is not perfection. It is steadiness. We help you parent from awareness rather than reaction, strengthening the relationship with your child while also caring for your own emotional health.
