Ellen White
Life Coach, Life & Relationship Coach
I work with clients to help them build healthier, more respectful and connected relationships with their children (at any age). I aim to take a lot of the guess work and stress out of building a long lasting relationship with your children. In turn, this helps kids feel a greater self confidence/esteem, develop good character, and weather life’s challenges better.

Benjamin MacMillan (GreenValley Counselling Services)
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I work with parents to give them the support they need to be the parents they want to be. Parenting is a more difficult job than most of us ever imagine. What we want most is the best for our children but knowing what to do and how to best parent our kids isn't always straightforward. I am here as a sounding board and to support you with one of the most challenging and rewarding jobs there is.

Kim Michael
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, CHT,CTP
Parenting can be deeply rewarding while also bringing stress, guilt, emotional exhaustion, and relationship challenges. I support parents in managing their own emotional well-being, strengthening communication, establishing healthy boundaries, and navigating family dynamics with greater confidence and compassion.

Karen Skinulis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I have dedicated my long career to parent education and family therapy. I use an Adlerian approach to help parents understand their child's behaviour better and to gain greater cooperation and harmony in the family. I begin by helping parents understand the goals of their child's behaviour (undue attention-seeking, power, revenge, assumed inadequacy). From there we work on specific effective strategies to become more inclusive and democratic. These approaches are very effective in helping children feel respected, valued and important in the family and will reduce conflict and misbehaviour significantly. I always focus on the tools of encouragement, communication, problem-solving and shared responsibility and will help parents learn how to hold effective family meetings as a way of keeping these goals in sight.

Sarah Glinski
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
Raising a child may be one of the most rewarding experiences one can have but it is also one of the most challenging and confusing. It is normal for parents to disagree (with their children and their co-parent), to feel overwhelmed, to feel shame or regret, to have anxiety or to just be at a loss. Seeking professional counselling to help you through parenting challenges can alleviate stress, bring clarity to the “big picture”, and secure you with the tools to communicate more effectively, build respectful, healthy family dynamics, and understand your children better. I provide free consultation phone calls to determine whether I am the right fit to help you through these challenges.
