Family Dynamics Workshop
​Family dynamics can bring deep love, and also deep pain. You might be navigating confusing boundaries with family members, wondering when support becomes enabling, or how to offer guidance without overstepping. Maybe you’re constantly worrying, compensating, or carrying the weight of someone else’s emotional or financial well-being, unsure where your responsibility ends and theirs begins. You may be trying to help, but questioning whether you’re actually hurting.
These patterns can be subtle or overt, but they all take a toll. You may find yourself:
-
Prioritizing other people’s needs while neglecting your own
-
Trying to protect, fix or rescue the people you love
-
Walking on eggshells or saying yes to prevent others from shutting down, lashing out, or withdrawing
-
Caught in a cycle of guilt, blame, or self-doubt
-
Constantly trying to keep the peace, even when it leads to stress, strained relationships, and financial pressure
Even though this caregiving instinct often comes from a place of deep love, it can unintentionally keep us, and those we care about, from learning what we need to learn to live full adult lives.
And when we live this way, we unknowingly teach our children to do the same: to shrink themselves, ignore their needs and equate love with self-sacrifice.
The good news is, we can interrupt this cycle. We can model a different way forward.
This workshop teaches practical techniques to help you navigate family dynamics with greater clarity, confidence, and calm.​​

Reframe unhelpful stories and release emotional charge from past experiences that still shape how you show up

Set healthy boundaries and care for your own needs without guilt
-
Communicate with clarity and empathy

Read emotional cues and behaviour patterns in yourself and others so you can respond wisely instead of reactively

Access resourceful emotional states when you feel triggered, stressed, or stuck
Whether you're navigating long-standing family patterns or preparing for a specific interaction, this workshop will give you practical tools to care for yourself, communicate more effectively, and create space for healthier relationships and a more fulfilling life.
“Letting go of the pressure to manage or fix others has changed everything—from my marriage to friendships to extended family. I can now show up more freely, connect genuinely, and still honour my own boundaries. There’s more ease, more space, and more trust in myself.”
-- Kristyn Livermore, Director, Westend Hypnosis

"I used to take on others' pain like it was my own—feeling it before they even called, carrying it in my body, losing sleep trying to fix it. But through hypnosis, I learned I can step into their energy without staying there. I don’t have to repair them—I can hold space, offer perspective, and let them find their own healing. That shift didn’t just help them... it freed me.*"
