Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
As a wife, mother and daughter, I resonate with the joys and challenges of parenting.
I tried so hard to be a good mum that eventually I lost my way a little and made child-rearing like a mission to accomplish rather than a journey to be savoured and experienced.
This awareness led me to seek support and put the oxygen-mask on as they say.
Now my parenting experience has completely shifted, it is a lot more relaxed, satisfying and fun - and my children and husband feel it too.
My mission is to nurture and support other women who are mothers or are planning to be mothers to foster and engage in safe, respectful and loving relationships first within themselves and in turn their children and their family.
I also support mothers who have recently become empty-nesters and grappling with a sense of loss of identity and purpose.

Alexina Baldini
Psychologist, B.B.Sc., G.D.A.C.P., M.Psych.(For.), F.A.P.S.
One of the roles that requires the most skill, we are often not trained to be parents until starting to think about having a family, and then it is often just focused on the giving birth process. We then see parents who may be reluctant to ask for support until their situation feels desperate and their children are demanding, clingy or displaying other challenging behaviours that prompt help-seeking. Our therapists provide supportive guidance to parents using a range of treatment modalities that include attachment-focused therapy and practical environmental analysis and change implementation.
