Forgive yourself for not knowing what you didn’t know before you learned it

Coaching for Parents and Carers

Are you a parent or carer of a loved one with mental illness? Perhaps they are living at home with you, and perhaps they are an inpatient.

Do you find yourself doubting your abilities?

Are you feeling overwhelmed and not sure how you are supposed to get through every day?

Do you feel isolated from a lack of understanding and support?

Are you struggling with a lack of control of the situation?

I know how it feels

Exhausting

Frustrating

Isolating

Scary

Overwhelming

Intimidating

What can I do to help you?

When I was caring for my daughter during her time as an inpatient, and since she has been discharged home, I didn’t feel there was anyone to turn to who would understand my situation. I didn’t know what I needed to help me, but I was always looking and learning.

I know how hard it is to feel like all hope is disappearing out of the window. And because of the experiences I’ve had, I want to create an empathic space for others who are supporting loved ones through some of the toughest times of their lives.

Coaching is not therapy and I won’t be telling you what to do, who to speak to or how to ‘fix’ the situation. But if you are at a point where you know that you need to make some changes, or you want to find a way to show up stronger for your loved one or to advocate better for them, I will help you find your way.
