Mindful. Conscious. Present.
Parenting Support
Parents may often feel very overwhelmed with the increasing demands and stress of raising a child. This pressure generates from a number of sources including the fears that come with the responsibility of child rearing. As children move along their developmental trajectory, parents are required to adjust and adapt to the changes. This can be a difficult, confusing and confronting process, particularly throughout adolescence. Consulting with a therapist can help to normalise children’s behaviours and work towards achieving a solid understanding of their presenting issues. Leanne has a strong belief in mindful and conscious parenting in order to foster positive self-esteem and resilience in children.
Leanne offers general parent guidance and coaching with the goal of strengthening the parent-child relationship, helping parents to manage and reduce problem behaviours and enjoy more harmony in the home.
Leanne helps to empower parents through emotion-coaching practices which teach parents how to tune in to their child's emotions and build resilience through emotional regulation.
Leanne strongly believes in normalising the struggles that go along with parenting and appreciates the importance of humour in performing the hardest job in the world: being a parent.
