Consultation Services

We provide consultation to parents/caregivers, educators, and other professionals. Consultation usually involves an interview and discussion around a specific concern or question.  The goal of a consultation is to gather  information and problem-solve collaboratively in order to work towards a desired outcome. When providing consultation to parents/caregivers, we work primarily from an Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) perspective, and also draw upon other ideas like positive parenting and collaborative problem solving. Consultation is flexible and may involve a single session, or multiple sessions depending on needs.

Parents often seek consultation to explore:

• Navigating big emotions

• Managing challenging behaviours

• Questions about family dynamics

• Building parenting skills and strategies

• What kinds of treatments or supports may be helpful

Other topics for consultation include:

• Supporting learning needs at home or at school

• Implementing strategies or interventions in a school setting

• Individual Education Plan development

• Supporting behaviours or emotions at school
