Counselling and Parent Support
Helping you raise happy, healthy children who are able to realise their potential and find their place in the world
We all want our children to be happy and healthy, but sometimes their behaviours can leave us feeling frustrated and completely at a loss to know what to do.
I understand this feeling, and offer a warm, friendly welcome and a safe space to talk about whatever is worrying you. We can chat about your parenting goals and I will help you to create the family life you really want.
I won’t label or diagnose your children. I will, however, offer strategies for creating lifelong change, and help you to address the “why” behind those challenging behaviours and learning difficulties.
Making an appointment for an initial parent consultation is the first step on your healing journey, and might just be the hardest part.
Support for Families
Parents
Would you like help with parenting and navigating your children’s challenging behaviours?
You’ve realised that systems of rewards and consequences, don’t work, but what else is there?
What if I said that, rather than attention seeking, your child’s behaviour is actually their way of seeking connection?
Children and Teens
Are your children struggling with reading, writing, spelling and other classroom learning?
Are they worried about personal issues, such as friendships, bullying or anxiety, or finding it difficult to manage their emotions?
I offer a confidential space where they can feel seen, heard and understood, and can process whatever is bothering them.
