Relational support for families navigating emotional and behavioral complexity
— a compassionate + embodied approach to Occupational Therapy that moves beyond contemporary and mainstream models of health.
Parenting is devotion in the midst of storms.
It’s love that won’t quit, even when you’re exhausted, ashamed, or afraid you’re failing.
When behaviour feels like a mystery you can’t solve, it’s easy to feel lost —
but you’re not alone here.
Who is this for?
This work is for families who feel like they’ve tried it all —
rewards, routines, consequences, therapy, charts —
and still nothing works.
You may have said:
“Why can’t they just listen?”
“I don’t recognise myself in these moments.”
“Am I failing them?”
You might even be at the edge of considering medication or wanting to wean off — and this feels like a last resort.
You’re not here for another technique.
You’re here because something deeper is asking to be met — in you, and in them.
This work is for families who want to:
Decode behavior as communication, not defiance
Build connection where there’s been struggle
Find safety in the emotional storms
Move beyond reaction and blame
Hold your child — and yourself — with compassion and presence
How does it work?
In this space, we slow down and begin again.
We meet the child — and the inner child within the parent.
We explore behaviour not as a problem to fix, but as communication to decode.
Together we build language, tools, and ways of relating that create more partnership and less power struggle.
Sessions may include:
– Relational repair between you and your child, and within yourself
– Nervous system education + co-regulation tools
– Emotional decoding — what’s really beneath the behaviour
– Parent - led Play-based inquiry
– Somatic processing (for parents and children)
– Parent–child interaction support
– Inner child work for parents (to better understand your child)
– Attachment- pattern awareness and boundary repair
– Art, movement, and subconscious exploration
– Values-based goal setting that grows with your family
You’ll leave with practical tools, yes — but more importantly, a new awareness:
That your presence matters more than perfection
That your child is not giving you a hard time; they’re having one
That healing the home begins with creating safety inside yourself
What this is NOT
Therapy for your child.
A diagnostic assessment.
A shortcut or a sticker chart.
What this IS
A space for connection, repair and nervous system safety.
Slow work of co-regulation.
Building healthy attachment patterns for the whole family.
What is Holistic OT
Most people know Occupational Therapy as task-based support and functional equipment. What many don’t realise is that OT was originally created after World War I as a trauma-responsive discipline — rooted in meaning, creativity, community, and healing.
Veterans weren’t given worksheets. They were invited into basket-weaving, art, and circle work. Not just “skills for life” — but practices that re-wove belonging.
Somewhere along the way, that wisdom was lost.
Holistic OT reclaims that original intent. Drawing on occupational therapy, somatic psychotherapy, trauma recovery, and holistic healing, this work supports families to:
To support nervous system integration and emotional attunement
Navigate stress and big feelings with more ease
Nurture meaningful relationships through presence and play
Honour the mind, body, spirit, and environment as interconnected
Cultivate rhythms of safety and belonging in the home
