Magdalena Karakehayova
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I believe that effective parenting can take many forms, however, oftentimes effective parents are able to validate their children’s emotions, have consistent messaging, and model love and kindness for their children. I find that if a child is acting out, it is not necessarily a flaw in the child, but rather a larger familial issue that needs to be discussed in order to figure out the type of support each member needs and how they can effectively communicate this outside of therapy.

Laura Farberman
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
Parenting Support is support where and when you need it. Change with our children begins with us as parents. A big part of parenting is tolerating and sitting with a child when they are having big, overwhelming feelings. If you didn't get this when you were young, a big part of Re-parenting yourself is tolerating and staying with yourself while you are having big, overwhelming feelings. Support is based on positive, respectful, compassionate, gentle and connection based parenting techniques that are effective and meaningful. It begins with building a relationship to get to know your families history, strengths, and challenges to bring about change through empowerment and self awareness. Practical, attainable strategies will start to be discussed from your first session.

Shanna Budzinsky
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Parenting is one of the most challenging roles we can undertake because each child has unique needs and there can be a lot of conflicting and confusing information out there. It can feel difficult to know what is right for your family, especially if challenges arise. Therapy for parenting can provide a supportive space to be able to work through difficult situations and explore approaches that work best for your family. When working with parents, we work together as a team because parents are the expert when it comes to their children. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit.

MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
Parenting is life-changing, wonderful, and challenging. As a mother of two beautiful humans myself, I know how parenting transcends time. What I mean by this is that parents have to deal with present day tantrums of their children while reenacting their own parents, or seeing themselves in their children, or any combination of these which changes and switches based on how you feel, where you are, and who your with. Let’s not forget how becoming parents greatly impacts your relationship with your spouse. It’s a lot, because it’s alot of change and adjustment all at once.
One on one therapy for parents can be especially wonderful. Finally, a space just for them. Free to feel and say out loud all that you need/want too but don’t because of pressure.

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.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
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.
