Is your child struggling with big emotions, behaviours, separations or difficult experiences?

When there are worries for a child in these areas it can often mean the whole family is struggling and sometimes as the caregiver you need someone to help you make sense of it all.

I work with a range of mental health (anxiety, trauma, mood), developmental (feeding, sleeping, communication), and attachment/relationship concerns for children aged 0-10. By working through these concerns, I am aiming to support your child to get back to the tasks of childhood: to remain regulated when experiencing big feelings, to form close, trusting relationships with their caregivers and peers, and for them to feel safe enough to be able to explore, learn, play and be curious about their world.

My approach uses evidence- and trauma-informed approaches, with the child-caregiver relationship at the centre, because you, and your relationship with your child, is the most powerful vehicle for change when working with little ones. By using play, reflection, and practical strategies in the moment, you will feel more confident in understanding and responding to your child and they will feel more secure and ultimately learn to manage big feelings.

I will provide a combination of caregiver sessions, parent-child sessions, and individual sessions with your child, so that together we can understand what your child’s behaviour and emotions might be communicating. By making meaning together, you and your child will feel less overwhelmed, less alone with what you’re feeling, and you’ll find your way back to wellbeing, safety and connection.
