CHILD & ADOLESCENT COUNSELLING SERVICES

 Counselling intervention is available for children and adolescents presenting with a range of difficulties including but not limited to anxiety, stress, emotional regulation difficulties, behaviour difficulties, school refusal, ADHD, ODD and ASD.  

My approach to counselling is evidence based, informed by ongoing research and caters for individual needs.  My aim is to support children, adolescents and their families by using evidence based theory and to translate it into practical solutions and strategies.  

10 mins at the end of every session with children, is dedicated to feedback time for parents so they can best support their child between sessions.
