When we look beneath the behaviour, everything starts to fall into place
Parenting can feel overwhelming when your child is struggling...
If you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or exhausted, and looking for answers— you’re not alone.
Most parents have times where they feel stuck – unsure what to do, and wondering where to turn to for guidance.
You may have tried to address your child’s behaviours in ways that didn’t seem to help—or just didn’t feel right.
Many parents find themselves searching for answers, especially when traditional responses don’t seem to work.
Behaviour is often your child’s way of communicating.
When children are feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, or misunderstood, they can’t always find the words to tell us.
Learning how to tune into and read the meaning behind their behaviour, everything starts to make more sense.
Rather than seeing your child as naughty or disobedient, counselling and parent coaching can help you to understand what the behaviour might really mean.
We can work together, building closer family connnections. based on understanding and support.
Hello, I’m Rosalind
I’m a PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor and Developmental Practitioner, with over 20 years’ experience supporting children and their parents.
There have been times when I’ve sat where you are now, feeling stuck and looking for answers.
I understand how overwhelming life can feel at times, especially when your child is expressing big emotions, or struggling at school, and things just don’t seem to be working the way you hoped.
My approach combines an understanding of early development with an holistic or whole person perspective, exploring what might lie beneath the surface of what you are experiencing.
At the heart of this is a simple understanding:
- we all need to feel safe before we can learn
- behaviour is a form of communication
- connection is at the heart of change
If this feels like the kind of support you’ve been looking for,
you’re welcome to reach out.
Sessions are available face to face in Moruya, on the NSW South Coast, and online Australia-wide.
How I Can Help You
Parenting Support
Parenting can feel overwhelming when your child is struggling.
You might be dealing with:
- big emotions or meltdowns
- anxiety or worry
- school or learning challenges
- behaviour that doesn’t quite make sense
You’re not alone—and there is a way to begin making sense of what’s going on.
Support for You
Parenting can be demanding, and at times overwhelming and exhausting.
I understand how stressful this can be, and offer a calm, non-judgemental space where you can feel safe, seen and heard.
Working together we can address the difficulties you are experiencing.
Sometimes helping your children simply starts with feeling supported and understood yourself.
Supporting Couples
Parenting can sometimes strain even the best relationships.
You may find yourselves responding differently to your child, or feel like you’re on different pages with parenting.
This is something many parents experience.
Your shared counselling sessions offer a calm, supportive space where we can talk through your parenting issues together, helping you to feel more connected and more aligned as a couple.
