Family/Parent Support

Family members, caregivers, parents, and spouses play essential roles in the overall functioning and relational health of the family system. When a loved one’s substance use or related behaviours become overwhelming, family members may experience significant emotional and psychological strain. It is common for them to struggle with maintaining a sense of safety, balance, and personal well‑being while also attempting to provide care and support. 

Seeking counselling support for these challenges can help parents and caregivers learn to develop and maintain healthy boundaries, identify patterns or enabling versus supportive behaviours, coping strategies for self-care, conflict resolution and building parent confidence.

What Counselling Can Help With:

- Developing, setting and maintaining healthy boundaries

- Coping strategies

- Identifying enabling versus supportive behaviours

- Conflict resolution

- Strengthen parent confidence
