PARENTS
"Beneath every behaviour there is a feeling. And beneath each feeling is a need. And when we meet that need rather than focus on the behaviour, we begin to deal with the cause, not the symptom"
- Ashleigh Warner
Parenting is one of the most important jobs you will ever do, it can also be very challenging and exacerbating at times.
- Have you or your partner experienced a difficult or traumatic journey bringing your child into the world or into your care?
- Did you face challenges growing up with your own parents or carers?
Are you a new parent feeling isolated, low in confidence, or overwhelmed with anxiety? - Perhaps you’re finding it hard to adjust to your new role, or are concerned about your child or teenager’s challenging behavior and would like supportive strategies to manage these?
My goal is to help you grow in confidence, trust your own judgment, and foster a stronger connection with your child, ultimately helping you and your family lead a happier, more fulfilling life.
Note: I have trained with Eli Lebowitz from Yale Child Study Centre on the SPACE Programme – Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions. This requires working with the parent(s) instead of the child, young person, or young adult to achieve successful results in eliminating debilitating anxious childhood behaviours.
I’ve trained as a parent coach with the Jai institute of Parenting.
As a parent myself, I fully understand the challenges, uncertainties, and joys that come with this role. Parenthood is a journey filled with unexpected twists and turns, and it can be overwhelming at times..
As a parent coach, I create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can explore your concerns, whether it’s about adjusting to parenthood, managing your child’s behavior, or building your own confidence as a parent. My goal is to work with you to find solutions that align with your values, empowering you to trust your instincts and grow as both a parent and an individual.
