Claire de la Varre

Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Parenting can be both the most meaningful and most challenging thing you do in life. Especially when you have parents with differing ideas about how to raise children. Even if you are on the same page, parenting challenges can bringing up strong emotions and self-doubt. You might get triggered by your own unresolved issues from childhood with your own parents. How do you support a child’s needs while caring for your own? There is no single “right” way to parent and if you have more than one child you will quickly find out that one size doesn't fit all. Therapy will help you think more clearly about your relationships with your child(ren) and partner (if applicable), build confidence, and develop practical strategies that align with your values. Self awareness as well as information on different personality types can help you respond thoughtfully rather than reactively in everyday family life.

Edinburgh, Scotland therapist: Dr Anna Dako, counselor/therapist
Parenting

Dr Anna Dako

Counsellor/Therapist, AHPP, RSME/T, UKSMDT
I have worked with many young people and children over the last 10 years of practice to discover that the sources of many problems that affect them come from their immediate home environments. Parenting never stops, and to me, working with movement-guided sessions is specifically beneficial to parents who feel stuck in repeated patterns of behaviour. Finding new ways of operating with relational triggers is important to move swiftly between the wants and needs of every day life as a parent, and to staying attentive to change. We can discuss your specific needs of parenthood during a consultation session, and build a plan for the sessions as we speak.
