Family support
Helping families reconnect
As an experienced family support practitioner and a mother myself I know how difficult it can be on the whole family when our children are struggling with life or we are faced with challenging situations that feel overwhelming or out of control.
Relationships may begin to fray and we can find ourselves feeling helpless, just wishing we could wave a magical wand and take all the fears, anxiety and issues away.
I believe that in order to restore balance it requires you to look at the bigger picture (which is sometimes very hard when your so emotionally invested in your child). My approach is to bridge the gap between child and parents to help create a more harmonious life .
Happy Child = Happy Parent
Happy Parent = Happy Child
Do you feel you’ve tried everything and nothing is working?
Do you feel like no one understands what you are going through?
Do you feel alone and unsupported?
Do you feel like parenthood is not what you through it would be?
Do you feel you’ve lost a sense of who you are, barely recognising yourself anymore?
Do you put pressure on yourself, feeling like you should know all the answers but no matter how hard you try, nothing ever feels enough?
Have you read all the books and tried all the parenting advise and still feel lost?
Do you feel judged and embarrassed when you go out with your child?
Do you avoid certain situations for fear of embarrassment or judgement from others?
Do you feel like you could do with some guidance, but are overwhelmed with the amount of information out there and not sure where to start?
If you can relate to any of the above then Lisa may be able to help!
