Haimove Amir
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychology of counseling
I provide compassionate, practical support for parents navigating the challenges of raising children and adolescents. Parenting can become especially difficult when a child experiences autism, ADHD, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioural challenges, developmental differences, or social and communication concerns. I work with parents to better understand their child's needs, strengthen communication and connection, manage challenging situations, and develop strategies that can be used at home. My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental, recognizing that every family is different. The goal is to help parents feel more confident and supported while building positive, respectful relationships with their children.

Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
When working with clients experiencing parenting challenges, I help them explore the emotional and relational dynamics at play — both within the parent–child relationship and within themselves. Together, we look beneath the surface of behavior to understand what’s really being communicated, fostering greater empathy, patience, and self-awareness. My approach emphasizes strengthening connection, setting healthy boundaries, and developing practical strategies that align with the family’s values. Ultimately, the goal is to support parents in feeling more confident, grounded, and attuned — creating a home environment where both they and their children can thrive.
