Work With Me

What does it involve?

Every family I work with receives personalised, practical support that fits their child, their challenges, and their real life.
Here’s what our work together usually looks like:

1. Goal Setting & Initial Planning

We begin by identifying the key goals you have for your child, along with the specific challenges you’re currently facing.
This helps us create a plan that is completely tailored to your child’s needs, your family dynamic, and the outcomes you’re hoping for.

2. Weekly One-to-One Sessions

(Online or In Person)

Each week, we meet for a one-hour session. These sessions may be with you, your child/teen, or a mix of both — depending on what works best.

During these sessions, I’ll guide you through:

• Simple, realistic strategies tailored to your child

• Practical tools you can start using right away

• Support to help you understand your child’s emotions and behaviour, including how their brain processes stress, overwhelm, frustration and worry

Each session builds on the last, helping you make steady, meaningful progress.

3. Resources for Your Child

For much of the support I offer - I provide child-friendly resources, videos and activities to help you implement the strategies as a family. 

Everything is designed to be simple, engaging and appropriate to your child’s age and needs.

4. Brain-Based Education

A big part of the work I do involves teaching both parents and children about the brain — and why we sometimes feel, think and react the way we do.

I firmly believe that understanding the brain:

• helps parents get to the root cause of emotions and behaviour

• shows children that their feelings make sense

• empowers young people by helping them realise their brains can be influenced, shaped and calmed with the right tools

• removes shame and replaces it with confidence

This knowledge becomes a lifelong skill — not just something that helps right now.

5. Support That Evolves With You

As life changes (and it always does), we adapt the plan so it continues to meet your child’s needs.
Your support grows alongside your child, helping you navigate not just this moment — but the years ahead as they move into adolescence and young adulthood.

My goal is to provide support that lasts far beyond our sessions, giving your family clarity, confidence and connection long-term.

Choosing someone to support your child or family is a big decision — and you deserve to know you’re in safe, experienced hands.

Here’s what I bring to the families I work with:

🧠Professional Experience You Can Trust

I have extensive experience supporting children and young people with their emotional wellbeing, mental health, and development.
I’m qualified in both therapy and life coaching, which means I draw on a wide range of strategies and techniques — always choosing what fits your child best.

14 Years Working With Teens in Schools

I’ve worked in secondary education for over 14 years, so I understand the real, everyday challenges young people face — anxiety, pressure, friendships, motivation, exams, and everything in between.
Building relationships with children and teens is my strength, and helping them feel understood is at the heart of everything I do.

Personal Experience as a Parent

I’m a mum myself, and I’ve been through the worry, the tears, and the “I don’t know what else to try.”
I get how heavy it can feel when your child is struggling — and I will never underestimate just how much you’re carrying.

Kindess

Families describe me as kind, calm, easy to talk to, and completely non-judgemental.
I’m here to work with you — not telling you what you “should” be doing — but jumping right into the trenches with you, and helping you out!

A Personalised Approach That Works

Every child is different. Every family is different.
I take the time to understand your unique situation so I can offer simple, realistic strategies that actually make a difference in your everyday life.

Families who work through this program report real, lasting change:

• Their child is better able to manage anxiety, worry, anger and other strong emotions.

• Their child becomes more confident, resilient, and better able to cope with everyday challenges.

• They feel more equipped to support their child in difficult moments, with practical tools that actually work.

• They have a clearer understanding of how their child’s brain responds to stress and how to respond in ways that help, not escalate, the situation.

Together, we build lasting foundations for emotional wellbeing — for both you and your child. 

Getting support shouldn’t feel overwhelming — so I keep the process simple, calm, and pressure-free.
