What to Expect
Parent counselling offers a supportive space to navigate the challenges of raising a child with special needs. Sessions focus on understanding the stress, grief, and relational shifts that caregiving brings, while also exploring the resilience and strengths within your family. Together, we’ll work on emotional regulation, communication, and practical coping strategies so you feel less isolated and more empowered in your role as a parent.
Why It Works
Research shows that parents of children with special needs face increased stress, role strain, and relational challenges—but also carry untapped resilience. By combining trauma-informed counselling approaches with evidence-based interventions such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Somatic awareness, I help parents reduce burnout, improve family communication, and build coping strategies. This integrative work creates a space for hope, balance, and connection to emerge.

Who It’s For
This service is designed for parents and caregivers of children with diverse or special needs, including autism, developmental disabilities, and complex health conditions. It’s for those who feel overwhelmed, isolated, or uncertain in their caregiving role, and who want a safe, non-judgmental space to process their emotions, build resilience, and strengthen family bonds.
