It’s natural for children to experience emotional ups and downs as they grow — not every challenge is a sign of something deeper. As a therapist, my role is to work alongside you to explore what’s happening for your child, and to help distinguish between typical developmental struggles and signs that additional support may be beneficial.
Through careful listening and observation, we can help you make sense of your child’s behaviour in the context of their emotional world, relationships, and stage of development. This process is collaborative — your insights as a parent are essential.

A child’s wellbeing is shaped not only by what happens to them, but also by how those experiences are understood and responded to by the adults around them.
Sometimes, a single session is enough to bring clarity and reassurance. Other times, ongoing therapy may be helpful for your child, or for you as a parent. Together, we can decide what feels most useful and appropriate.
