Supportive Counselling for Parents & Caregivers

Being a parent or caregiver can stir up some of the deepest emotions we experience—love, worry, exhaustion, pride, confusion, and everything in between. In the midst of caring for others, it can be hard to find time for yourself. Therapy can offer a space just for you; a space to reflect, make sense of your parenting experience, and gain support without judgment.

A Space for Every Parenting Challenge

We honor the complexity of parenting and recognize that every family’s journey is unique. Our therapists provide support for parents and caregivers who are navigating:

  • Emotional or behavioral challenges with their child
  • Complex co-parenting dynamics
  • The journey of parenting a neurodivergent child
  • Their own feelings of stress, self-doubt, or burnout
  • Major family transitions or stressors

Our Approach: Support Without Judgment

At Dr. Sala and Associates, we approach each family with warmth and collaboration. Our work together isn’t about giving you a rulebook; it’s about exploring what’s going on beneath the surface for you and your family. We create a safe space where you can be open about your struggles and celebrate your strengths.

How Counselling Can Help You as a Parent
