Parent Support
If You Are An Overwhelmed Parent, You Are Not Alone! We are here to support you.

At Lotus Therapy, we understand that the parenting journey can come with unexpected challenges and fears. Our counsellors are here to provide you with the support that you need through these difficult times.
With the right support, you could grow as a parent while giving your children everything they need!
Common Reasons for Seeking Parenting Therapy
Parenting counselling is a valuable resource for all parents, but it can be particularly beneficial to those going through difficult moments.
- Experiencing marital issues
- Struggling with mental health problems or grieving the loss of a loved one
- Undergoing separation or divorce
- Experiencing abuse or aggression
- Teen Issues, child behaviour and development

Co-parenting
Many parents worry about how their separation or divorce may affect their children. It is completely normal to feel overwhelmed with emotions of anxiety, nervousness and sadness as this journey begins.
Our counsellors will help parents navigate these changes while keeping their child’s best interests at the core of any decisions made.
Topics That Can Be Discussed in Coparenting Sessions:
- Talking to your children about divorce and allowing them to express their feelings.
- Certain behaviours from your child may arise like acting out in school that require special attention.
- How to co-parent when you are no longer together as a couple
