You’ve sought to be more conscious in your parenting and tried to implement new strategies.

Maybe you’ve read books, listened to podcasts, spoken with other parents, or followed a range of parenting accounts on social media. There’s an idea in your mind of the strong, secure relationship you’d like to build with your child.

And yet, something isn’t clicking.

The parenting information you’ve found feels overwhelming and contradictory. It’s hard to sift through the noise and figure out what feels right for you, your child, and your big-picture goals for raising children.

Maybe your child doesn’t react to the new strategies the way you expected them to. You wonder if you did something wrong or if your child is maybe just different?

Somehow you keep reacting to your child’s behaviour in ways you don’t intend to. You have doubts about whether you can be the calm, confident, responsive parent you want to be. You worry how you’ll cope with difficult seasons to come, like adolescence.

Your reasons for exploring support may be as unique as you are. But regardless, you’ve noticed that parenting feels stressful.

You might also be feeling…

• Disconnection in your relationship with your child
• Tension or disagreements with your partner or co-parent about how to raise your child
• Confused about your discipline approach, reacting with whichever strategy pops into your head (whether it aligns with your values or not)
• Overwhelmed or burnt-out trying to balance everyones’ needs (never mind your own!)
• Frustrated that you’ve got knowledge that you’re struggling to put into action
• Critical of yourself and like you don’t measure up to your ideals

Tailored parenting support can help you find clarity.

Raising a person from infancy to adulthood is no small feat, and full of bumps along the way. It’s natural to feel overwhelmed at times. It’s worth investing the time and energy into getting help so you can show up as the parent you want to be and support your child as they learn who they are in the world.

I can help you:

• Clarify your values + intentions for the long-term view of raising your child
• Become more conscious of the beliefs, experiences, and learned responses getting in the way of consistently acting on your intentions
• Regulate your emotions better so you can support your child with theirs
• Develop more insight into your child’s inner emotional world
• Build the foundation for developing a secure attachment with your child
• Define your reasonable limits and develop your confidence in respectful discipline
• Adjust your environment and the way you interact to help your child learn new ways of responding
• Develop skills in parenting practices that will help you to weather storms throughout childhood, adolescence and beyond
• Find joy in parenting and delight in your child

I’ll help you through the process, tailoring each step to your individual needs, and always with the importance of relationship at the core of what we do.
