Children don't always have the words to explain what they're carrying.
Sometimes distress shows up through behaviour, anxiety, withdrawal, anger, school difficulties, friendship problems, low self-esteem or emotional overwhelm. As parents, it can be difficult to know whether a child is simply navigating a developmental stage or whether they need additional support.
I offer a calm, supportive space for children and young people to explore their thoughts, feelings and experiences in a way that feels safe and appropriate to their age and stage of development. Sessions may incorporate talking, creative activities, play, storytelling, imagery or other expressive approaches, depending on the needs and preferences of the young person.
Alongside direct work with children and adolescents, I can also support parents who are seeking a deeper understanding of what may be happening beneath the surface of a child's behaviour. Together, we can think about emotional needs, attachment patterns, family dynamics and practical ways of supporting emotional wellbeing at home.
My approach is collaborative and compassionate, recognising that every child, young person and family is unique.
Areas I can help with:
Anxiety and worries
Low self-esteem and confidence
School-related stress or school avoidance
Friendship and relationship difficulties
Emotional regulation and anger
Bereavement and loss
Family change, separation or divorce
Identity and belonging
Neurodiversity-related challenges
Social and emotional development
Parent-child relationship difficulties
Whether you are a parent concerned about your child's emotional wellbeing, or a young person looking for support through a difficult period, therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what is happening and feel less alone with it.
