Parent Coaching
For Child Anger in Toronto
When your child shows angry, defiant, or aggressive behavior, it can feel overwhelming. Think of those intense outbursts like your child holding up a sign to express just how sad and out of control they feel on the inside — even when it doesn’t look that way.
My work with parents is grounded in decades of psychological research showing that when families adjust in specific ways that include warm, consistent, predictable approaches to care, children’s ability to regulate their emotions and behavior can also change in meaningful ways.
Strengthening Communication & Connection
We’ll look at how to improve communication with your child —- helping you respond to distress with emotional attunement. You’ll learn:
How to approach difficult moments by focusing on understanding the “why” behind a behavior
How to diffuse conflict before angry feelings escalate to meltdown
Practical strategies so that you feel more confident helping your child learn and practice what to do (rather than what not to do)
