You may find yourself stretched between your child(ren)’s needs, work, relationships, and your own well-being—with little space left to breathe. In therapy, I’ll walk alongside you as you navigate your parenting journey, offering support, encouragement, and practical tools that fit your unique family.

It takes a Village to Raise a Child: Parent Coaching at MindFit
“The thing about parenting rules is there aren’t any.” That’s what makes it so difficult.” – Ewan McGregor
From emotion regulation challenges to ADHD to social media use, there are no shortage of parenting challenges. MindFit Parent Coaching aims to help make your job a little easier.
Workouts (sessions) are designed to improve children’s emotional, cognitive, behavioural and health-related outcomes by fostering parenting skills and improving the quality of parent-child relationships.
Techniques:
Collaborative Problem Solving
• Developed by Dr. Ross Greene at Harvard Medical School, CPS is an extremely effective technique for helping youth learn lagging skills in the areas of flexibility, frustration tolerance, and adaptability.
• CPS is based on the premise that children do well if they can (not if they want to) and your explanation of why a child is behaving poorly guides the intervention. More specifically, CPS sees challenging behaviours as resulting from skill deficits and not motivation deficits.
• Consequently, the goal is to help parents learn to solve common problems/challenges (e.g., screen time, homework, routine difficulties) with their youth collaboratively and proactive, while teaching youth new skills along the way.
Emotion Coaching/Emotion-Focused Parenting
• Parents and caregivers learn to recognize and attend to their and their child’s emotions and use emotions as moments for teaching. Parents are also taught to listen with empathy, validate their child’s feelings, and meet their child’s needs (e.g., offering a hug if a child is sad).. When a child calms down, parents learn to help their child label their feelings with words and then discuss practical coping strategies to deal with triggers and improve self-regulation skills
Positive Parenting Interventions/Strength-Based Parenting
• Strength-based parenting helps parents to acknowledge and encourage a child’s unique abilities, talents, and skills (i.e., strengths).
• Practical advice and interventions (e.g., ways to identify parent strengths and children’s strengths, how to have conversations for connection) is provided to help set children up for success, maximize potential, and nurture and foster children’s talents and strengths.
At MindFit, we only provide programs and workouts that are backed by science and based on real data. You can expect to work with skilled clinicians who aim to create a safe, non-judgemental, de-stigmatizing, compassionate and welcoming environment. Sessions are aimed to at being short term and time limited, handouts and resources are provided to help you implement your new toolbox of strategies and skills, and questionnaires/check-ins are used to measure/track change.
