Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
I love to work with parents who are struggling to parent their children. We'll look for patterns that come from root issues that may be impeding clients' ability to parent. Psychoeducation is important in this area so new skills can be developed. I supply parenting resources and believe the connection and attachment we develop with our children early in their lives creates a calm well adjusted child.

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.
