As a children’s therapist over the years I have had so many varied conversations with children and teens who genuinely think they are broken. That their brain has stopped working properly or there is something seriously wrong with them.
Add to that the increase in neurodiversity, mental health conditions, school avoidance and we end up with a daily potion of behaviour that as parents we are trying to manage.
Yep you got it I am a mum too. A mum who has also experienced post natal depression, birth trauma, panic attacks, agrophobia and general anxiety disorder to name but a few things.
I have a highly sensitive son who home schools and a determined daughter in main stream. When the going gets tough its tough.
This is where I love my role as a children’s’ therapist because I can support other children to learn and support themselves, mine don’t listen lol.
Areas of work I can support for children and teenagers are as follows:
- Anxiety
- Low mood
- Confidence issues
- Sports performance
- School avoidance
- Emetaphobia
- Fears and phobias
- Toiletting issues
- Motivation and routine
- Sleep issues
All of these can benefit from receiving solution focused clinical hypnotherapy in a positive and nurturing environment.
It is more than a therapeutic chat. It Is a space to learn, relax, and grow whilst sorting through things the way you need to.
I offer a FREE initial consultation and that includes both the parent and child so they both understand how I work with 1:1 sessions to follow.
