FAMILY THERAPY & PARENT COACHING

Healing Happens Together

Families are systems—when one member is struggling, the whole system feels it. Whether your child is experiencing emotional or behavioural challenges, or your family is going through a transition or loss, therapy can offer a path toward understanding, connection, and growth.

Our Child and Family Therapy services focus on strengthening relationships and supporting each member of the family. We work with children, parents, and caregivers to explore patterns, improve communication, and co-create healthier dynamics. Together, we build tools to navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and compassion.

In Parent Coaching, we provide tailored support for caregivers who want to better understand their child’s emotional world and respond with clarity and care. We recognize that parenting doesn’t come with a manual—and it can feel especially complex when big feelings, past trauma, or developmental differences are in the mix.

We help families with:

  • Emotional concerns in children (anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, self-harm, suicidal ideation).

  • Behavioural challenges in children  (aggression, hyperactivity and impulsivity, ADHD and attention difficulties, risky behaviours, substance use, sleeping disturbances, social skills deficits, school avoidance/refusal).

  • Family conflict and transitions (divorce, moves, loss).

  • Emotion regulation, boundary-setting, and co-regulation tools.

  • Parent-child relationship strain (developmental transitions, communication breakdowns, frequent arguments, sibling rivalry).

  • School avoidance or school refusal (underlying family dynamics, difficulties with communication and problem solving skills, address underlying and co-occuring issues like anxiety or trauma).

  • Trauma-informed and attachment-based strategies.

  • Building resilience and connection in the home.

Our Approach

Our family counselling practice is deeply rooted in Emotion Focused Family Therapy, an approach grounded in attachment theory.  We view the family as an emotional system where secure and healthy emotional bonds are essential for individual and collective well-being.  

If you are concerned about your child or your family’s well-being, reaching out for support is a sign of strength.  Contact us today to learn more about how our child and family therapy can help your family thrive.  We believe that when emotional foundations are strong, families are better equipped to navigate challenges and thrive together.  We offer a confidential and compassionate environment to begin your journey toward lasting positive change.
