If you have a personal history of Adoption/Supplemented Care, or if you are a Foster Carer, Adoptive Parent or Care Provider, I can offer you compassion & work with the child in your life to deal with the confusion and challenges caused by relinquishment, numerous placements and adverse experiences.
Were you adopted or fostered as a child? Are you parenting an adopted/fostered child you’d like to bring to counselling? Being relinquished presents episodic and life-long challenges. Through counselling, I can support you, or the child in your care, to identify, make sense of & manage the misunderstood challenges & trauma symptoms that result from relinquishment trauma, complex grief, attachment disruption, identity loss or search & reunion. Post-Adoption Counselling can help alleviate confusion, validate one’s experience, disrupt shame, increase a sense of Self and empower individuals to grow beyond their pain & circumstance.

Parenting Counsellors
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.
When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.
How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
