Re-Parenting & Parent Coaching

With Dr Shani, GP

Calm. Confident. Connected.

Welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Dr Shani, a qualified GP, Certified Parent Coach, and Circle of Security Facilitator offering evidence-based re-parenting coaching and parent coaching for individuals and families.

I specialise in helping thoughtful adults and parents feel calmer, more confident, and more connected — both within themselves and in their relationships with their children.

If you’ve found your way here, you may be longing for things to feel different. Softer. More grounded. More aligned with the kind of person or parent you want to be.

You are in the right place.

A Unique Blend of Medicine, Neuroscience & Attachment Coaching

My work integrates:

  • Clinical experience in general practice and family medicine

  • Specialist experience in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care

  • Current neuroscience and attachment research

  • Certification as a Parent Coach

  • Circle of Security facilitation

  • My lived experience as a mother of three

This is not generic parenting advice. It is medically informed, relationally grounded, and individually curated.

Based in Albany, Western Australia, I offer online re-parenting coaching and parent coaching sessions via Zoom to clients across Australia.

This allows you to access evidence-based, attachment-focused support wherever you are — from Perth to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and beyond.

Re-Parenting Coaching for Individuals

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or struggling with self-criticism, my re-parenting coaching supports you to build emotional resilience, self-trust, and healthier relationships.

Together we focus on:

  • Nervous system regulation using applied neuroscience

  • Breaking generational patterns

  • Building self-compassion and confidence

  • Strengthening boundaries and communication

  • Aligning your choices with your core values

This work is ideal for adults seeking personal growth, emotional healing, and deeper self-connection.

Parent Coaching: Strengthen Your Relationship with Your Child

If you are a parent, our work focuses specifically on you and your relationship with your child. Rather than quick-fix parenting hacks, I support you to develop long-term strategies rooted in neuroscience, attachment science, and emotional development.

Parent coaching can help you:

  • Respond calmly instead of reacting

  • Navigate big emotions and challenging behaviour

  • Build secure attachment

  • Break reactive parenting cycles

  • Feel more confident in your parenting decisions

Either we spend time meeting our children’s emotional needs by filling their cup with love, or we spend time dealing with the behaviours caused from their unmet needs. Either way we spend time.
