COMPASSIONATE, NON-PATHOLOGISING THERAPY
Find peace and presence in your parenting, without the guilt or overwhelm
Tired of feeling triggered and overwhelmed in your parenting? It doesn’t have to stay this way.You can reclaim your peace and presence.
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIARAre you:
Tired of reacting to your children from your triggers, whether with snappy comments and angry outbursts, or resorting to shaming strategies just to try to get them to listen to you?
Frustrated from the moment you wake up, feeling irritable and on edge and seemingly unable to break the cycle, no matter how hard you try, with it often ending in a constant cycle of guilt and shame.
Often feeling activated when your child is having a meltdown and unable to respond in a calm and regulated way?
Worried that you’re repeating old patterns, and that your triggers are creating the same dynamics you grew up with, even though you don’t want to?
Uncertain about how to set boundaries that feel right for both you and your child, without feeling either too harsh or too permissive?
Overwhelmed and drained, with no time to recharge or care for yourself, leaving you emotionally spent at the end of the day?
Stuck in fear, constantly worried about whether you’re failing as a parent, or making the wrong choices when it comes to discipline and connection?
Questioning yourself daily, wondering if and how you’ll ever break free from the emotional reactivity, and create the calm, connected parenting experience you dream of?
In a constant battle with your own emotions, trying to be the calm, connected, loving and patient mum you know you can be, but never quite able to get there?
It doesn’t have to stay this way.
When you address the wounds and patterns beneath your current challenges, that’s where true, lasting transformation happens. It’s not just about managing the day-to-day struggles of parenting—yelling, feeling overwhelmed, or battling guilt and shame. These challenges are merely the symptoms of what is lying underneath - the unhealed emotional wounds and automatic, unconscious defence mechanisms that are driving your reactivity and ultimately shaping your interactions with your children.
By working at this deeper level, we will create real, sustainable change together. We’re not putting a band-aid on the behaviour or trying to manager our triggers, we’re resolving them at the root level… ultimately, healing the wounded inner child within you, that is still operating out of fear and vulnerability and colouring your behaviours as a parent. As we heal these core wounds, and release your hardworking defence mechanisms from their roles, you can begin to show up as the authentic, calm, and empowered parent you know you truly are—no longer reacting from fear or unresolved emotions, but parenting from a place of groundedness, inner peace, clarity and calm.
Hi, I’m Holly
A root cause therapist, trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS), and (single) mama to a strong 3-year-old girl.
Through my work with clients over several years, I’ve come to understand that so much of our emotional reactivity as parents stems from parts of us that are still holding old wounds and the parts that are working so hard to keep those wounded parts from overwhelming us with emotion. It is these latter parts - our defence mechanisms - that often cause us to react in ways that don’t reflect who we want to be as parents, or who we truly are.
As a mother with an understanding of the implications of complex trauma, I know how challenging it can be to break free from these automatic reactions. Even with the knowledge and tools I already had when I became a mum, I wasn’t able to understand how to start showing up as the calm, present, and connected mum I wanted to be until I learned strategies to tend to my wounded parts, heal those old emotional wounds, and release the protective parts that no longer served me.
I’m here to help you do the same—by working with your own internal landscape, healing the wounds at the core, and releasing the defences that no longer serve you. This is where real transformation happens: when we heal our wounds and free ourselves from old protective mechanisms, we can begin to show up in a more peaceful, present, and connected way, both for ourselves and for our children.

In my longer programs, I am particularly passionate about working with mothers in the early years who are seeking support to heal their own wounds that they suspect are showing up in their current parenting challenges. I also work more generally with women living with the symptoms of complex trauma, unresolved attachment wounds, and more. I incorporate all the tools and knowledge I have into my 1:1 programs.
Monthly investment: $750AUD/month if you wish to incorporate monthly RTT sessions, however we can certainly come up with a package that suits you, your budget and your unique needs. Please contact me to discuss the options.
