About me
Are you worried about your child? Do they get overwhelmed at home, or with schoolwork or friendships? Are you concerned that they might be struggling with new changes in your family, or with pressure from elsewhere?
It’s painful to see your child exhibit bursts of anger, become withdrawn, lose their confidence or worry excessively, and it can often be difficult to know where to start in getting support for them.
I help children and teenagers to understand and work through difficult feelings they are struggling with. By making sense of what is happening to them and learning tools to cope, they will feel more in control and more like themselves again.
More information about how I can help your child can be found on my website.
Alternatively please get in touch if you have any questions, or to book an appointment, on 07894858677 or email me.
