Making Sense of Your Child
Making Sense of Your Child
I help parents understand the systems shaping their child's world. Educational structure, digital life, and emotional history. Rooted in psychotherapy, we think carefully about behaviour, clarify your rights, and restore steadiness within your family.

Balance
It's not just about balance. It's learning how the systems around you work.
Here's what I offer to bring structure and calm. Explore the support available and reach out when your ready
If only finding balance were as simple as flipping a switch.
You’re closer than you think.
And every step you take makes it clearer.

Why is he throwing?
Daniel reached out about his 18 month old son, who had developed a habit of throwing toys across the room. It wasn't dropping, it was deliberate forceful throwing, over and over. He wondered if something was wrong

How I Work
How I Work
Getting started doesn’t have to be complicated. My process begins with understanding, not pressure. We will examine what is happening and build practical guidance around your children and family.
Where We Begin
The first step begins with an email. Your can reach out when your ready and describe what feels unsettled or uncertain. We look at it carefully without judgment. Clarity and understanding develop from taking the first step.

Thinking Together
Then we look carefully at what your child could be expressing through their behaviour. We can also explore how this is affecting you and what it brings up emotionally. Rather than rushing to explanations or labels, we consider the wider context and relationships shaping the moment. From there, clearer and steadier decisions begin to form.

Ongoing Support
Support does not end after one interaction. As your family grows and situations shift, new questions will likely emerge. We can return to the work, reassess what is happening, and respond thoughtfully. This provides continuity and a place to think clearly when situations feel uncertain again.

Returning to Safety
After her daughter ended a pregnancy, Shirley noticed something shift. The once independent young woman stopped leaving the house, avoided the outside world, and withdrew into herself. Shirley felt concerned and unsure how to reach her without pushing her further away

Beyond techniques or tools, therapy works best when it feels safe, real, and human.

Slowing down is more than just taking a break — it’s a conscious choice to live at a pace that allows space for reflection, connection, and clarity. In a world that celebrates speed, learning to slow down can feel radical, but it’s a powerful way to reclaim presence and peace.

Your questions.
Answered.
Not sure what to expect? These answers might help you feel more confident as you begin.
Didn’t find your answer? Send me a message, I'll respond as soon as I can.
Why should I trust your guidance?
You don't have to straight away. Trust builds through conversation. I've spent years working directly with children and families, writing developmental observations, navigating nursery systems for parents, and training in Child & Adolescent Psychotherapy. I don't rush to judge behaviour. I look for the meaning.

Do you only work with parents and families?
Parents and families are at the heart of my work, especially while I'm training as a Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist.
But I can, and do support anyone who needs clear information or guidance around child development, early years systems, digital life, or family dynamics. Sometimes that's grandma, aunty, early years practitioners, SEND workers, or people wanting a second opinion.
If what you're looking for sits within the areas I work in, we can have a conversation and see if it's a good fit.
How is this different from therapy?
How is this different from therapy?
This isn't formal therapy. It's reflective, practical guidance. We explore child development, behaviour, systems, and pressure. You leave with clearer thinking and direction, not a diagnosis.
Can I book a therapy session for my child?
Can I book a therapy session for my child?
Many families ask this.
At this stage in my training, I cannot provide formal therapy to children. Therapy requires full clinical qualification and registration, and I will offer it when that level is reached. Until then, I provide reflective guidance and developmental support.
What qualifies you to do this work?
What qualifies you to do this work?
I've worked for many years in Early Years settings and alongside families, written hundreds of developmental observations, and supported parents to navigate uncertainty. I am also training in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy. I stay within my scope.
Is everything I share kept confidential?
Is everything I share kept confidential?
Yes. What you share stays private. The only exception would be a serious safeguarding concern, where I have a legal duty to act. Transparency matters.
What makes someone reach out to you, and when?
What makes someone reach out to you, and when?
It's often something practical. A parent feels like they are not listened to at nursery. A policy that doesn't make sense. A conversation that left them a little confused rather than reassured.
Sometimes it's a child coming home different, while the setting say's they're 'misbehaving,' and you're not sure what that really means.
It could be gaming until 11 at night, arguments during the weekend. It could be school saying your child is aggressive.
Separation, a change at home, or just a sense that something feels off.
Families reach out for all sorts of reasons. Some are big. Some are small. Most sit somewhere in the middle. It's less about crisis and more about wanting to understand what's happening before it grows into something heavier.

Lets Talk
When it feels right to reach out, you can.
I work best at the point where things don't quite make sense. You don't need to feel clear to reach out, anger, worry and uncertainty is often where the real thinking begins.
Prefer to chat first? Send me an email or connect with us on social, I'm always happy to help.
