Parent Coaching

What it is

Parenting can be both meaningful and overwhelming. Our Attachment-Based Parent Coaching supports caregivers who want to reconnect with their child or teen through insight, practical tools, and a deeper understanding of relationship dynamics.

Whether your child isn’t open to counselling, or you're seeking guidance for everyday challenges, this service focuses on connection over correction, grounded in research and real-life parenting.

Recommended as a 4–6 session series, with flexible options for continued support.

What it looks like at Ember Centre

Parent Coaching at Ember is relational, attachment-based, and tailored to your family. Sessions are offered individually or as co-parents, facilitated by a registered counsellor trained in attachment-focused approaches.

What sessions may include:

  • Exploring family dynamics and co-parenting

  • Building communication and emotional regulation tools

  • Strengthening connection after conflict or disconnection

  • Psychoeducation on child and teen development

  • Balancing parenting and work through an attachment lens

  • Co-curating nature-based experiences with your child to support connection and healing in non-traditional ways

We draw from family systems, narrative, and play-informed approaches, meeting you where you're at while offering creative options that extend beyond the therapy room.
