Parenting is always evolving. As our children grow, so do we, and parenting in a new country adds its own layers of change, questions, and adjustment.

This is a warm, supportive space to explore it all. From child development and communication, to boundaries and trust, to the unique challenges of raising children across cultures and after immigration.

Led by Emine Kaya-Bican, PhD, this workshop runs online on the first Wednesday of every month, starting November 2026. It is free, and held in Turkish.

Come with your questions, your experiences, and your curiosity. Let’s learn and grow together.

Today is World Mental Health Day, and this year’s theme is Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change.

It is a reminder that the most powerful force against stigma is honesty. The voices of people who have lived it, named it, and kept going anyway.

Whether you are the one struggling or the one holding space for someone who is, your story matters. And it deserves to be heard.

We often picture anxiety as visibly struggling. But for many people, it looks like the opposite. High achieving, dependable, endlessly capable.

That’s what can make high-functioning anxiety so hard to name. The very traits the world praises, being productive, reliable, always on, can quietly come at a personal cost. And because everything looks fine from the outside, it often goes unspoken.

If this resonates with you, know that you don’t have to wait until things feel unmanageable to reach out. Support is available, and wanting it is always valid.

Back-to-School Tips for Teachers: Connection Before Curriculum 🍎

With school starting, our therapist Samareh shares a simple reminder for teachers: the first month is less about correcting behaviour and more about building relationships.

Getting to know each student’s strengths, offering movement and choice, and creating a safe space can support focus and regulation far more than commands like “calm down” or “focus.”

Because connection always comes before correction.

September is National Su***de Prevention Month.

It is a time to raise awareness, to open up conversations that are too often kept in silence, and to acknowledge those who have been affected.

Su***de touches more lives than many of us realize. Behind the statistics are real people, families, and communities. Raising awareness is one way we work toward a world where mental health is spoken about openly and no one feels invisible in their struggles.

This month, we stand with everyone impacted.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, 988, Canada’s Su***de Crisis Helpline, is available 24/7 by call or text.
