Parents and Families

Parents, you're not failing. You are just carrying too much alone.

If you’ve ever sat on the floor after a hard moment and thought, “I’m ruining them,” — this is for you.

If your child’s big feelings leave you spiraling…
If you find yourself reacting in ways you promised you wouldn’t…
If you see the same painful patterns from your own childhood repeating — and feel powerless to stop them…

You’re not broken.
You’re not a bad parent.
You’re navigating something no one prepared you for: intergenerational trauma.

At The Elara Institute, we understand that parenting isn’t just about what’s happening in the moment. It’s about everything that came before — your nervous system, your unmet needs, the ruptures you’ve never had space to heal.

You don’t need more behaviour charts.
You need to feel seen. Supported. Human.

This is for the parent who:

Feels like they’re always apologizing
Is triggered by their child’s emotions — and ashamed of it
Knows the past is showing up in their parenting but doesn’t know how to change it
Feels like the connection they long for with their child is always just out of reach
Has been offered “tools” but never care

We hold space for the parent who's parenting while healing.
Because you matter — and your story deserves room in this process.

1:1 Cycle Breaking Coaching

Personalized support for parents committed to breaking cycles and building something new. This 60-minute session is a private space for reflection, clarity, and practical guidance. You’re working to show up differently than how you were parented—and that’s beautiful, brave, and exhausting. These coaching sessions are a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what’s showing up in your parenting—without shame or judgment. Together, we’ll explore the patterns you’re trying to shift, the moments that feel the hardest, and the tools that can help you move through them with more confidence and care. We might talk about: Why you react the way you do—and how to change it How your past shows up in the present What co-regulation really looks like in messy, real life How to parent in ways that align with your values, even when triggered This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about supporting you to feel more connected—to yourself, your child, and the kind of parent you want to be.

Break cycles. Stay connected. Come back to yourself.

Parenting is hard—especially when you’re trying to do it differently than it was done for you.

You’re navigating meltdowns, power struggles, and exhaustion… all while carrying the weight of your own childhood, trauma, and shame. And still, you’re showing up every day trying to be present, attuned, and intentional.

These 1:1 coaching sessions are a place to lay some of that weight down.

In this space, you’ll be:

Met with compassion, not judgment
Supported in unpacking patterns that no longer serve you
Given tools and practices to move toward connection and regulation
Reminded that you’re not broken—you’re doing brave, healing work

We’ll look at what’s beneath the hard moments—not just your child’s behaviour, but your nervous system, your story, and your values.

This parent coaching is about supporting you to feel more confident, more connected, and more like yourself in your parenting.
