YesConsultant Parenting Education Centre

Parenting is a challenging process, and many parents wonder at times whether they are doing the best for their child. Parent counselling and education are evidence-based approaches for helping parents to cope with a range of difficulties affecting their children.
If you are experiencing some of the following issues and they are causing you distress, parent counselling may help.

Children refusing to follow instructions
Not being sure how to communicate effectively with your child
Trouble implementing routines
Finding it hard to know what emotions your child is experiencing
Feeling like you are in a "power struggle" with your child
Strategies to manage behaviour are not working
Counselling can occur with one or both parents, and focuses on helping parents to learn ways to encourage positive behaviour, manage undesirable behaviour, and understand the emotional needs of their children.

If you are a parent who
• is struggling with parenting
• is worried about how your child behaves at home, at school or in the community

• feels your child is unusually sad, anxious, angry or unable to manage his/her feelings
• is worried about your child’s mental health
• wants help with tension and conflict within the family
• needs help getting or managing the support your family needs to parent well
our team of professional counsellors can help.
