Welcome I’m so glad you’re here
I’m Dr Shani, a qualified GP, Certified Jai Parent Coach, and Circle of Security Facilitator offering evidence-based parent coaching that holds the connection between you and your child at its center.
Parenting is one of the hardest jobs you will ever do. It is an incredibly complex and skillful craft that takes years to master.
It makes sense that parents need support and strategies to feel empowered and connected in the lifelong gig that is parenting.
If you’ve found your way here, you may be longing for things to feel different. You may feel that somewhere along the way you got off track.
The work we do together brings you back to your centre, to grow your parenting skillset that works for you and your deeply held values. A skillset that grows alongside your dynamic and changing child!
You are in the right place.

My lived experience as a mother of three
This is not generic parenting advice. It is medically informed and relationally grounded to suit you and your child.
Based in Albany, Western Australia
I offer online 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.
A Limited Opportunity to Work Together
Private coaching with a medically qualified GP and attachment specialist.
Spaces are limited to ensure personalised, high-quality support.
Coaching will be paused from December to mid 2027 as I undergo further intensive training to expand this area of my expertise.
“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.”
