I am a writer, coach, and counsellor, working with clients to increase their communication and proactive strategies to cope better. Whether that means encouraging cooperation with their kids or helping them as they’re struggling with anxiety, bereavement, and other mental health challenges. I initially trained to be a primary school teacher in South Africa before completing a postgraduate diploma in dyslexia and literacy in the UK. Soon after marrying, my husband and I moved to the United Arab Emirates, where we still live today with our two sons. Following my successful twenty-year career in special needs teaching, working with vulnerable children and adults, including working with my challenging children and being one myself; in late 2019 I felt as if something was amiss. My older son’s behaviour had always been challenging but, I believed, that by strictly enforcing behaviour modification techniques to control his conduct, he would find his teenage years easier. As the opposite began to quickly unfold, I was inspired by my son to question my traditional parenting style and make significant and positive changes. I went outside of my comfort zone and realised that we don’t have to be so extreme in our parenting views or follow any one way to raise our children confidently. I sat in the centre of all the different parenting styles, tested their validity, and listened to my gut to determine that what worked was a balanced, communication-based approach to raising my children.
