Challenges

Challenges that parents face can have a large impact on their children

It’s important to note that when parents have their own challenges relating to loss, trauma or transition, this may affect children and have a large impact on them. This is why it’s crucial to work with a specialist who uses the right approaches and methods to address these issues. Our therapists at Guiding Light Psychology have experience working with children and their families to navigate through difficult situations.

During family therapy with kids, our therapists will work with the family to identify patterns of behaviour, communication styles, and emotional triggers that may be impacting their relationships. We use evidence-based techniques and interventions to help children and parents communicate effectively, build empathy and understanding, and develop strategies to manage challenging behaviours.
