Are you finding yourself constantly saying, “No, Don’t, Stop, Quit” to your child? Perhaps losing your temper and then regretting the things you say or do? You have tried nagging, grounding and begging to no avail and the scenario repeats itself again.
If you are a parent who wants a sense of calm in your home, is motivated to improve your relationship with your child, learn positive ways to manage behaviour and help your child reach his/her potential, this is for YOU.
Using a connected earpiece/microphone and video device via Zoom, I will be with you at the moment your child has a meltdown, or is unwilling to cooperate. Right there beside you, pinpointing exactly how the interaction unfolds, and helping you shift your approach so you can see immediate results.
Parents are their children’s best ‘therapists’. I will teach you the skills to make a life long impact on your child’s cognitive, emotional and social development. My approach in parent-child therapy is informed by positive parenting, neuroscience and parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT), an empirically supported intervention that coaches parents on how to improve their relationship with their children and manage challenging behaviours.
Strive not to be a perfect parent but a conscious one
Are you constantly feeling guilty, stressed and reactive? Raising children can be challenging for many reasons especially when one faces personal issues in their relationships, mental/physical health, work, and daily life stressors.
Parent counselling is a place where you can openly discuss your challenges in a safe and non-judgemental space. You can expect to gain insight into your interaction with your child and learn practical tools that help you strive towards a meaningful and rewarding relationships with your child
Guidance from a compassionate counsellor
The wonders of individual therapy comes from having a safe space that allows for a deeper exploration of the issues identified by you, without worrying about the needs of others. You may freely speak your mind in my counselling space.
I help people regain their hope and strength. Part of working with me includes exploring what is holding you back, unlearning unhelpful patterns and supporting you in making decisions that redefine who you want to be.
Play is a child's language
Children and youths are susceptible to the same emotional hurdles as adults. They are constantly trying to make sense of their experiences and often need emotional distance from their issues, worries and concerns.
During your child’s telehealth sessions, my foremost goal is to help your child feel safe and comfortable. I engage your child through play, art therapy and evidence-based virtual activities to help facilitate your child’s self-expression and healing.
Through the safety of the client-therapist relationship, your child will develop coping skills, build resilience and increase self-regulation.
Rebuilding Connections
Whether you are having challenges with your spouse, a family member or a friend - here, you'll find a dedicated and safe space where you'll come together to connect and explore your concerns.
Part of being in a fulfilled relationship comes from understanding and navigating your own needs as well as your partner's. I help people in relationships become aware of their unhelpful pattern of relating with one another and find ways to rebuild a healthier connection.
I welcome a free 15-min consultation.
