Children
For young children, I would aim to meet with parents and children together to start with and then make space within the assessment process to meet with parents and children on their own. Once the assessment is completed, I would make a recommendation of care which could be individual work, family work or parent support; or a combination of all 3. For further information about the assessment process please click here.
The types of difficulties I work with children and their parents around include:
- Low mood and sadness
- Anxiety (including health anxiety, panic and OCD)
- Trauma, grief and loss
- Difficulties managing transitions/changes
- Difficulties in attachment relationships
- Difficulties related to eating and sleeping
- Challenging behaviour
- Adjusting to/managing a chronic physical health condition
