Our psychotherapy and coaching sessions are for any parent who feels burnt out, stuck, or at a loss in their parent-child relationship and ready to do the inner work to create profound shifts in their parenting journey. Parents will be supported to explore, understand and embrace your relationship with your children, yourself as a parent, and the connection between your perception of your past relationships and how you parent today.
Engaging with one of our parent specialists will create opportunities for profound perspective shifts, healing inner child wounds, and understanding and addressing repeated and no longer serving patterns and triggers.
At The Family Systems Hub in Melbourne, we believe many of the repeated difficulties or patterns we experience in life within the family system are interconnected with our family ancestral roots.
Our Psychotherapy & Coaching Approach:
Psychotherapy draws on the healing power of the client – therapist relationship to help you make positive changes in your life and develop greater self understanding and have the life tools that are within you to feel more steady, mindful and resilient. Our therapists and coaches are trained and experienced in how to be with another person in a away that is conducive to that persons’s healing, wholeness and psychological wellbeing.
In some instances, one or two sessions will be enough to find resolution but sometimes it may require seeing our therapist/coach more regularly over an extended period of time. Our psychotherapists and parent specialist team utilise a broad range of therapeutic interventions to assist you in exploring and resolving the root emotional causes of a personal or interpersonal nature or the most challenging aspects of your parenting that traditional talk therapy may not fully access or address. Our psychotherapists and parent specialists embrace a family systemic perspective that blends somatic awareness, modern psychology, mindfulness, nervous system regulation, attachment, gestalt, family constellations, and EMDR towards holistic health and healing.
Embracing Growth and Fulfilment:
We believe that our wounds or unresolved trauma in life are profound opportunities for growth, authenticity, self-mastery, and fulfilment. By choosing to embrace and reframe our experiences and stories, we can live more integrated lives, embracing the wisdom and order of both joy and pain as part of our humanity.
This mental health support for parents will help you become the best version of yourself and foster a healthier relationship with your children, your partner and any other significant relationships that you most value.

What does inner work involve?
Without a working and expanding understanding about how our own childhood experiences have impacted upon us, we risk parenting from our blind spots and acting out our unresolved childhood issues on our children.
At The Family Systems Hub, we believe that our early wounds provide a profound opportunity to grow, learn, and prevent our unintegrated traumas and unmet emotional needs from being passed on to our children and future generations.
In a psychotherapy or coaching session, we may work on areas such as:
- Addressing challenging situations you face daily with your children and how they affect you mentally, emotionally, and physically (losing your vitality)
- Understanding the origins and function of your family dynamics, triggers, and attachment style that impact your children and your relationship with them
- Providing internal and external resources to help you feel more grounded and balanced during difficult, intense parenting moments
- Cultivating a more authentic self that feels joyful, present, and grounded, as opposed to a conditioned self that feels disempowered, ashamed, disconnected, overwhelmed, and exhausted
Investment
Our individual consultation fees range between $210 – $240 (dependent on therapist level of experience and availability) for 50-60 minute consultations.
Frequency can be weekly/fortnightly/monthly or single sessions. Consultations are held virtually or in-person.
Why work on past wounds as a parent?
We believe that our wounds or unresolved trauma in life are profound opportunities for growth, authenticity, self-mastery, and fulfilment. By choosing to embrace and reframe our experiences and stories, we can live more integrated lives, embracing the wisdom and order of both joy and pain as part of our humanity.
This support will help you become the best version of yourself and foster a healthier relationship with your children, your partner and any other significant relationships that you most value.
