Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
Parenting cam often be so overwhelming that we end up just repeating what we saw and what was normalized in our family of origin. My passion is working with clients to break all multi generational cycles and patterns of dysfunction that they may have learned from family of origin. We unpack the "family-culture".... those unspoken ways of being that create strife in parenting. Guilt, shame, anger, poor communication, lack of follow through, teen age rebellion are all part of the work that we unpack in sessions about parenting.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you worry about your child's emotional well-being or behaviour patterns? Are you struggling to figure out how to be a parent to a Gen Z or Gen Alpha kid? Being responsible for another human being and their well-being can evoke powerful feelings in parents, some of which stem from the present moment, and some of which are triggers from our own past hurts. At Transforming Emotions, our therapists are grounded in both emotion focused therapy and CBT allowing our team members to help you better manage your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviours as you help support your little one in doing the same. We know that parents are the most important resource in a child's life. Call to book a free consultation today to help us match you to the therapist who can best support you in your parenting journey.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RPQ, BA, LLB, CSAT, CPTT
The process of raising children can be fraught with questions, uncertainty and it can bring up parts of ourselves that we didn't know were there or that we had promised ourselves we would never let come out with our own children. We try to balance protection, care and responsiveness and sometimes we lack support, knowledge or positive examples of how to have the kind of parent-child relationship we desire. I have four children of my own and can relate. I am here to help you connect the dots, weigh the issues, process your past and family or origin traits to come into the role of parent in a way that feels grounded, positive and authentically you.

RIMA SEHGAL

In general, parenting is not easy. Therapy helps parents deal with parenting stress and provide space to discuss the conflicts. In therapy, the conflicts or internal entanglements of parents or their own childhood may come up, that can be explored to understand their own parenting styles. Parenting skills training/ or psychotherapy supports parents in being able to manage the behavious of their children, connect with them emotionally, and have better communication.

Magdalena Karakehayova

Parenting can be deeply meaningful, but also overwhelming and at times confusing. I work with parents to better understand their child’s emotional needs, make sense of challenging behaviours, and respond in ways that strengthen connection while still maintaining clear and supportive boundaries.

Jonathan Christink
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, BEd, MEd, Registered Psychotherapist
Most people know that there is no parenting manual they can reference to always get the "right" answer. That's because parenting is complex; a one size fits all approach doesn't cut it. If you're looking for support with parenting please don't hesitate to reach out, it'd be wonderful to connect.

Toronto is one of the most multicultural cities in the world, and its therapy landscape reflects this extraordinary diversity, with practitioners representing hundreds of cultural backgrounds and dozens of languages. The city's high cost of living and intensely competitive professional environment drive demand for therapists addressing financial anxiety, burnout, and the psychological pressures of ambitious urban life. CAMH — the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health — is Canada's largest mental health and addiction teaching hospital, providing major institutional resources alongside Toronto's vast private practice and counselling community. Ontario's OHIP coverage is limited for psychotherapy, so many residents use extended health benefits or pay out of pocket to access private therapy.
