Parenting is hard work. When your child struggles with anxiety, behaviour challenges, or difficult transitions, you can feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and unsure of what to do. You love your child deeply, but bedtime battles, meltdowns, and constant conflict leave you exhausted and questioning yourself. Parent coaching and family therapy give you practical tools and expert guidance to understand your child’s behaviour, respond with confidence, and create a calmer home.
I specialize in parent coaching and family counselling for Vancouver parents who want to support their children more effectively. Using Circle of Security Parenting principles, Theraplay, and attachment-based approaches, I help you understand what drives your child’s behaviour and strengthen your connection with them. Whether you’re navigating ADHD, sibling conflict, separation and divorce, or simply the everyday challenges of raising children, I provide the strategies and support you need.
Parent coaching can happen in individual sessions where we focus on your specific challenges, or in family sessions where we work together with your child. We’ll create a plan that fits your family’s needs and schedule. Sessions typically meet weekly or biweekly, with the length of therapy tailored to what works best for you.
Family therapy and parent coaching can reduce stress and conflict at home, improve communication between family members, and strengthen the parent-child bond. When you have the right tools and understanding, your child feels more secure and you feel more confident in your parenting. These changes create lasting impact for your entire family.
