Coaching for Parents

Parenting with Empathy: Empowered parent, Empowered child.

As a parent myself, I understand the everyday demands and significant events that can make parenting challenging. Personal loss, health issues, and protecting one’s mental health are just a few areas that require constant learning and adaptation. As much as we love our children, we also want to ensure they have the practical and emotional life skills to function on their own in this big wide world.

That’s where I come in. With my experience of working with parents and being a parent, I offer a personalized and empathetic approach to support you in your parenting journey. Together, we can adapt parental practices that work for you, your child, and your family, and find solutions to the challenges that come our way. Let’s work together to empower you and your child to thrive.

Cultivating Self-Connection to Better Connect with Your Child’s Needs

Becoming a parent is a transformative experience that can be both rewarding and challenging. As a parenting coach, I understand that every parent faces unique struggles in their parenting journey, and I am here to offer guidance and support. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and my 16 years of professional experience learning and understanding parents’ problems.

I believe that in order to meet their child’s needs, parents must first cultivate a deep connection with themselves.
In my work, I regularly come across parents who find it difficult to navigate challenges such as:

Balancing responsibilities: feeling of guilt when choosing between parental and work responsibilities
Dealing with challenging behaviours: feeling overwhelmed and defeated when trying to manage challenging behaviours and needs of their children, despite their best efforts.
Coping with stress: feeling pressured and drained to manage everything with limited resources, and struggling to regulate your own emotions and co-regulate with your child.
Navigating life-changing events: experiencing significant life-changing events and feeling stuck without having space to share emotions and issues.
Learning new skills: needing to learn new skills and develop deeper awareness to better help oneself and their child.
Navigating digital challenges: addressing screen time and other digital issues with children.
Balancing autonomy and control: striving to provide children with independence while maintaining a sense of control can be tricky and challenging.
Navigating cultural diversity: communicating parental expectations can be challenging.
Safeguarding and children’s well-being: ensuring the safety and well-being of children while allowing them to develop their independence and explore the world.
