Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
My approach to parenting may be unusual for many people in modern, Western cultures as it comes from a more traditional, growth oriented approach. I was raised in a modern, Euro-centric culture whose conformist, material values are not oriented toward community, family, or the individual. As a psychotherapist, I've noted that most of my clients struggled with a lack of parental support. This is true for both clients who come with problems and those approaching new opportunities.
From these clients and my own experience as child and parent, I feel parents are responsible for their children's material and spiritual growth. To play this role, a parent needs to be materially supportive, empathetic, understanding, aware and, most of all, have their own spiritual values. My prescription for successful parenting is simple: be a positive role model in all regards.
Once you have accomplished this, or are working to do so, you can address the problems you children may have. In most cases, or perhaps all cases, their problems will direct you to their solutions, which is to say solutions that are pertinent for them. It is possible, but it is rare, that how you conceive of their problems, and what you envisage as the solution to them, may be correct. It is more likely that you're wrong, and that finding the right answers will take patience and effort. Showing that you understand this is a lesson in itself.
As a parent, you are basically a therapist whose payment is fulfilling your obligation and winning your children's gratitude; not their future gratitude but their present gratitude. If you are not appreciated, then you probably are not helpful. Whether you are succeeding or failing, you must remain committed to helping them find solutions.
Like a therapist, you know very little compared to the complexity of the situations with which you are presented. You are obliged to provide energy, resources, encouragement, guidance, and protection. Your sincere advice is only as useful as it is appropriate, and even then it is likely mistaken. You have to know how to operate with responsibility but limited authority. Being a parent is not a privilege, it is an honor. You are called to play a role in your child's success or failure. You are not responsible for their success, but should take responsibility for their failures because you should understand the value of failure better than they do.
Most parents fail because they are not fully committed to being parents in the full sense of the word. What that means will to be determined by what your child thinks and feels. You are their counselor, you are at their service, and you must listen to them. As with moral virtue, you simply do your best.

Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
I support parents in understanding that children’s behavior is often an expression of unmet needs rather than something to control or correct. Instead of relying on discipline alone, we work on strengthening connection, responding to emotions with presence and understanding, and maintaining parental leadership through relationship rather than force. An important part of this work also involves parents becoming more aware of their own patterns, so they can show up in a more grounded and connected way with their children.

The Art Of Healing
Marriage and Family Therapist, RTC, CT
Parenting can be deeply rewarding—but also overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to support your child while managing your own emotions and responsibilities. I work with parents to build practical tools for emotional regulation, communication, and navigating challenging behaviours, while also helping you stay grounded and present in your role. Together, we explore patterns, triggers, and family dynamics so you can respond with more intention rather than react from stress. This is a space to feel supported, gain clarity, and strengthen your confidence as a parent—so you can show up for your child in a way that feels calm, connected, and aligned.

Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
When working with parenting, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.
