Parenting Counselling in North West London
I also offer parenting support to individuals and couples who are seeking to deepen their connection to their children and develop their knowledge and understanding of why children do what they do and how to meet them where they are, and at the appropriate level.
I am committed to offering a confidential, safe and supportive environment so you can explore your experiences, past and present, while focussing on your feelings. While challenging, this can lead to increased self-awareness, and the potential for growth and healing, helping you to move from confusion to clarity, and from self- doubt to self-esteem.

You might be an individual struggling with anxiety or depression, an inter-cultural couple often in conflict, or a family navigating a difficult transition. Perhaps you're seeking closer emotional connection, need to address issues of trust or past harm, or maybe you're simply feeling stuck and unsure of how to move forward. Whatever your unique circumstances, you're needing a safe, supportive space to work through personal and relational challenges to ideally reach a resolution or have a different perspective. Therapy can lead to meaningful change in how we think, feel, and behave both in relation to ourselves and others.

My approach is person centred with the intention of exploring and understanding each individual's unique personal experiences and needs.

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.
