Here at Soulconnection our focus is that every mother gets a chance to empower themselves to have the best possible experience when it comes to raising their teen. We pride ourselves on finding solutions to your current needs and know the teen years are fraught with challenges. We know seeing your child struggling through these years is really hard to watch, and often difficult to navigate what is going on.
After seeing 1000's of mothers over the past 20 years we see that not every case is the same and it is important to address every situation as it comes up. At Soulconnection we look to support you through this challenging time. We find there is a lot of support for your teenager but to have your own voice heard is difficult when seeking support.
With mental health in young people on the rise, and social media and smart phone culture creating more problems than we have ever known, there is no surprise why parents are looking for support. Here at Soulconnection we see the pivotal role mothers play in navigating the rocky terrain of teenage hood.
It doesn't have to be all bad and we want this time to be a celebration of growth and stepping into a new phase of life where you can form a deeper connection with your child as well as honor who you are as an individual. Let us support you through this time.
This is a sanctuary designed for you to navigate through any obstructions that may be holding you back, often associated with past traumas, unresolved grief or unfulfilled needs. This nurturing environment allows you to speak freely about yourself without judgement, recognising recurring patterns and gaining fresh insights while creating a safe space to delve into your emotions.
This six week program is designed specifically for mothers who have already embarked on the journey of self-discovery, worked through past traumas, and are now seeking to move forward, not wanting to revisit those old chapters. As your teen blossoms into adulthood, it's an opportune time for you too, to turn the page and create a new narrative for your life.
This unique program presents a rare and precious opportunity to engage in profound work alongside your child. Imagine stepping into a tranquil space, free from distractions and noise, where authentic conversations flow and connections deepen. Embarking on this journey together enables you to uncover long-standing interaction patterns and potentially detrimental communication styles that might have unknowingly established themselves over time.
In the complex tapestry of life, family remains the fundamental thread that holds everything together. It becomes particularly critical during the formative adolescent years, significantly influencing a child's development. At times, families need to unite within a secure environment to address challenges impacting their collective harmony. It's easy to mistakenly identify individuals as the root cause of issues, but such an approach can lead to more significant problems for both the person and the entire family unit.

I’m on a mission to empower mothers to find their true path without losing the relationship with their child.
As a father of a 7yo, and with a background in family therapy, counselling and coaching, and helping 1000’s of mothers navigate this challenging life stage. I took what I had learnt working in the health sector for over 20 years, into my own hands and now encourage mothers to do the work as well as watch their teens grow through this exciting but challenging life stage.
My real reason for wanting to impact mothers all around the world is the influence my mother had on myself until she passed away. My mother taught me so many valuable and beautiful lessons. Having struggled through my own teenage years with significant anxiety (unknown at the time) my mother was always my constant and someone I loved and admired. She taught me to fight for what I believe in and to love passionately and fully. I learnt an important lesson of self love which I carry with me daily. In a time where it was easy for my mother to put everything aside for me and her other two children she made a decision to go back to school which ultimately would impact so many lives (a story for another time).
In the work I have done for the past 20years, I was tired of the propaganda and red tape occurring in the systems that were supposed to support families. I realised that mothers particularly were not getting a fair say and got lost in the system that was more focussed on getting your teen support which ultimately failed because it wasn’t supported through the family.
I find the adolescent years are a particularly challenging time for mothers. All of a sudden in a blink of an eye your child who loved and adored you is looking elsewhere for validation and support. A lot of mothers find this transition extremely difficult and not only do they not want to be around you they have an attitude as well. It can be a very lonely place for a mother. Having witnessed my mother use this time to rebuild herself, enrich her own life and discover herself all over again, it has made me want to support mothers to use this time to heal from the past, reconnect on a deeper level with their child and discover you are meant for more
