THERAPY WITH ZAINAB
Registered Psychotherapist and Parent Coach

Parent Coaching
Parenting isn’t easy — and often it’s not what we imagined it would be. We picture playing in the park, baking together, raising teens who talk openly with us, and staying close to our children as they grow into adults.
Sometimes it does look like that (and that’s wonderful). But many parents find themselves facing daily power struggles, big emotions, rudeness, anxiety, or a growing distance from their child. When that happens, parenting can start to feel exhausting, confusing, and even lonely.
The good news is: things can change.
As a Registered Psychotherapist, high school guidance counsellor, parent of two, and Connected Parenting™ Accredited Coach, I help parents understand what is really happening beneath their child’s behaviour — and how to respond in ways that build connection while still setting clear, healthy limits.
Using the proven Connected Parenting™ approach developed by Jennifer Kolari, I teach parents practical tools grounded in neuroscience that help children feel safe and regulate their emotions, reduce conflict, and build stronger, more trusting relationships within the family.These are real-life strategies you can use right away in the moments that matter most.
Parents often come to coaching when they want:
-
calmer moments during difficult situations
-
fewer power struggles
-
deeper connection with their child (at any age)
-
more confidence and enjoyment in their parenting
Parent coaching is supportive, practical, and judgment-free. My goal is to help you feel more confident, more connected, and better equipped to handle the challenges of parenting.
If you’re ready for a calmer, more connected family life, you don’t have to figure it out alone; I’d love to help. I offer a free 20-minute consultation where we can talk about what’s happening in your home and explore how coaching might support you. Please fill out the "contact" form page on my website.
