Family Counselling

Family counselling seeks to improve communication, increase understanding, and strengthen attachment.
​
Attachment is something that is shared between children and parents. In the parent-child relationship each person affects and shapes the other's emotions and behaviours. As parents, your understanding and behaviour in the relationship has a powerful impact on your child’s behaviour and development. By understanding attachment in your relationship with your child, you can respond in ways that support healthy development and strengthen the bond between you and your child.
Parents are the strongest allies in their loved ones journey to happiness and success. Incorporating evidence-based models of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Connect parenting program, and Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), parents will learn about attachment and how attachment is an ongoing phenomenon in relationships (from cradle to grave). Parents will also learn to understand and respond to their children’s emotions and behaviours. To increase acceptance and improve interactions, parents are taught the importance of emotion via emotion coaching.
