Parent Counselling and Support

Parenting is hard.
Parenting neurodivergent children can be relentless.
And parenting while also being neurodivergent yourself adds another, often unseen, layer.

Many parents are holding exhaustion, overwhelm, and self-doubt while advocating, regulating, managing systems, and supporting everyone else. There’s often very little space left for you.

At Our Sensory Nest, parents told us they needed support too — not just strategies for their children, but space to process their own experiences. We listened and intentionally built this service with highly qualified, experienced, and neuro-affirming counsellors who truly understand this work.

This is a space where parents don’t have to mask, explain, or hold it all together.

 

Who This Is For

This support is for parents and caregivers who:

  • Are parenting neurodivergent children (autism, ADHD, PDA, sensory differences)

  • Are neurodivergent themselves

  • Feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or constantly “on”

  • Are carrying the mental load of advocacy, appointments, and systems

  • Struggle with guilt, burnout, or self-doubt

  • Want support that is trauma-informed, neuroaffirming, and real-life

​

You don’t need to be in crisis.
You don’t need the right words.
You’re allowed support too.
