Welcome
I’m Zara O’Brien, known by many as The Parent Therapist.
Parenting can feel overwhelming, and looking after your own mental wellbeing is often complicated. I share lived experiences, practical strategies, and evidence-based counselling and psychology to help you manage stress, build confidence, and support your child — without losing yourself along the way.
