Hi I’m Rhonda Nielsen, MSW, RSW.

I have been working in the mental health field for the past 18 years as a clinical Social worker as well as obtaining a Master of Social Worker degree. In this time I have worked with thousands of parents whose children have been diagnosed with mental health disorders that have caused them to display intense emotions. I have listened to parents overwhelm and frustration with their children’s behaviours related to anxiety or depression, and have heard how they feel hopeless to support their children because they don’t know the skills or tools to successfully manage intense emotions. I am here to change all that by supporting parents to learn the skills and tools to not only manage their own intense emotions, but feel empowered to assist and support their children with emotional regulation.
