English
| Français As a Certified EMDR therapist, I help postpartum moms with depression, anxiety, OCD and birth trauma as well as parents of littles who experience frequent and intense tantrums/meltdowns. Whether we’re a brand-new parent or in the trenches of toddlerhood/school-age, we often put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be the parent we ideally want to be – and feel like we’re failing despite our best efforts. If you catch yourself checking 100 times if the baby is still breathing, are terrified of viruses, or feel like gentle parenting just isn’t working despite following the popular parenting accounts on Instagram, know you are not alone.
With EMDR therapy, my clients often find lasting relief (grounding to safety despite the triggers, less obsessive-compulsive behaviours, remaining calm in front of a severe tantrum) quicker than with traditional talk therapy. I see my clients on average between 10-20 sessions (sometimes less, sometimes more) for a focused approach.
I will walk alongside you as you own your new role as a mom and as your gain confidence in your parenting abilities. Schedule your free consultation today by visiting my website. Learn more on Instagram at: danikhelpsmoms and listen to my podcast: Healing Mothers' Club

Groups
Trauma-Informed Parenting to Break the Cycle
You know tantrums and unwanted behaviours are probably developmentally appropriate for your child, but you just can't seem to be regulated enough to intervene in a way that is aligned with your values. In this group, I teach parents who had a rough childhood how to find inner safety when their child's tantrums and unwanted behaviours trigger them. I teach you how to self-regulate, how to co-regulate with your child, how to create and maintain boundaries, and how to safely teach your child. You don't have to become your parent. You can step into your authentic self as a parent.
