Working with Parents

I work with parents as people, not as problems to be fixed. I am not interested in perfection, blame, or the idea that parents must resolve everything in themselves to be good enough for their children.

Children are shaped less by whether their parents are calm, regulated or “processed” all the time, and more by the quality of relationship, repair, and ordinary human life. Tiredness, irritation, and limits are part of parenting under real conditions.

In our work together, we may explore exhaustion, guilt, resentment, pressure, or ambivalence — always with the aim of reducing load rather than adding to it. Therapy can support parents to live more sustainably, not hold them to impossible standards.
