Before contacting me, check if there are any free online chats about helping your child or teen with what's concerning you. I regularly run workshops on all aspects of parenting. See events on my other website 



What happens when you contact me?


Call me, text or email  to discuss the problem and I'll tell you how I can help.  This discussion can last 30 minutes and won't cost you anything. You may even learn enough to not need to make an appointment. Sometimes another angle on the issue makes all the difference. 
You can also arrange a WhatsApp video chat  so your child or teen can meet me to check that they are happy to work with me. 

If you decide to go ahead and book a first appointment?

First appointment

This is 90 minutes split between you and your child or teen, then them on their own to do an activity , exercise or to chat, then together again. It gives you the opportunity
- to learn more about how I work
- them the opportunity to decide if they want to commit to working together 
- and me the chance to explain any of the methods I will use that will help you decide whether I am the right therapist for your child

Next steps? 

I will email a suggested programme of sessions based on this first session but with flexibility to cover issues as they emerge as trust and rapport builds between us. 

If you or your child decides they don't wish to continue or feel that what you have learnt from the first session is enough to make a few changes for now, then that's absolutely fine of course. 

The sessions will include a number of different activities as well as talking because I find children talk more openly when they are doing something and the activity itself also reveals patterns which can help me guide them through making new choices and change patterns that aren't working for them.  I specifically use art and lego, story cubes and picture cards. 

Some children and teens find it easier to talk when they are outside walking so this is also an option. 
​
What sort of issues can I help with?

Most clients book four or six one hour sessions to work on specific agreed areas such as
- confidence
- anxiety
- friendships,
- learning struggles 
- sibling rivalry
- stress
- sleeping
- eating issues

When your child or teen comes to me I create an ‘open frame’ where they can talk, play music, do some art and craft, play with Lego or walk in the garden. I don’t believe direct questions work well, so I create an atmosphere of trust and curiosity where they can think about what they want and how they can achieve it.  

I love to use crystals and essential oils because both can be powerful ways for clients to express their feelings through projecting them onto a crystal or a smell. I've written a blog post about this, it might give you some ideas of how to use what you already have at home to get your child or teen talking about their feelings. 



Confidence and resilience -  need help?

I have a couple of more lightweight, less 'therapy' type programmes for children who don't have a specific problem or those who need a more wide ranging approach.
