Parenting therapists in Oakville, Ontario ON, Canada CA

Parenting in the modern world can often feel like a thankless exercise. Parents today are forced to navigate social and technological issues which can be exhausting to face with their children. Understanding how to navigate your own parenting values in light of these circumstances is crucial, and our therapists can help provide you with the clarity to do so.  

My specialty is working with children, adolescents and families. I also specialize working with people with autism across all life spans and other diagnoses presenting  

Parenting can be one of the toughest and most rewarding experiences. There is so much that can get in the way of parenting in the ways that we hoped for. A busy schedule, finances, burn-out, and so many other factors are just a few obstacles that may get in the way. As a therapist, I am here to work with you to understand and develop the ways in which you wish to parent. I do not impose my own parenting ideas on you, but rather I seek to support you in figuring out who your most authentic and meaningful parent self is. This will allow us to support you in developing your own unique parenting tools and styles best suited for you and your family. Connect with me today for a free consult to see if we are a good fit.  

We offer a wide range of psychotherapy treatment to ensure that you feel safe navigating through your journey.  

Knowing the role of a parent. Develop positive parenting skills to support and give your child a healthy upbringing. Parents are the driver of the school bus, not the children. Lets put some healthy parenting skills in place so your children can thank you in the future.  

Many of our registered psychologists and licensed therapists have extensive training and experience providing parent consultation to parents about children's mental health needs, behavioural challenges and relationship issues.  

If seeking parenting based support I can help you deepen your connection and improve communication with your child, while further supporting you as a parent in developing confidence in your ability to manage the many stressors of parenting. My approach to parenting support is highly effective in not only modifying unwanted behaviours, but increasing mutual trust, and instilling life long skills that will prove invaluable as your child(ren) develop towards adulthood.  

Parenting brings both joy and hardship. Parents face many expectations and are required to balance a multitude of demands. Therapy can provide a supportive space in which you can slow down amidst all that you are navigating and develop greater awareness of your needs and the needs of your child(ren) and family. Therapy can also be an opportunity to generate possible solutions to ongoing and emergent challenges within your parenting journey. As a therapist, my aim is to work with you in a way that respects your parenting values and upholds the best interests of your and your child(ren)’s well-being. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.  

Parenting is not easy, and each family unit comes with its own unique mix of challenges and successes. I work collaboratively with clients explore the narratives and expectations they hold about parenting, the child-parent relationship, and themselves. Therapy can provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can share your fears and struggles, while also celebrating your strengths and talents individually and as a family unit. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.  

Parenting is one of the hardest jobs in life. There is no manual for how to raise children/teens and we are bound to make mistakes. However, you can learn skills to help you attune to your child's feelings to help them feel safe. Children/teenagers can often feel confused about their emotions, which can lead to unhealthy thoughts and behaviours. Let us work together through play or expressive arts in understanding your child's/teen's needs for love and security.
