Time to focus on you.
Here are some ways I can help
Individual Counselling
It's really common for mums to need extra support after having a baby. No matter what you are struggling with, sometimes it really helps to have a safe person to discuss these issues with. Your emotional journey as a mother matters.
Circle of Security® Parenting™
Meltdowns, juggling multiple children, behavioural challenges - all leads to imperfect parenting. Find out how to do it all in a ‘good enough’ way to build emotional security in children and reduce the challenging behaviour.
Professional Supervision
An ongoing activity central to the professional identity and growth of allied health workers where you will experience an educative and supportive process focused on critical reflection, application in the practice area, and accountability.
