What do we help children, adolescents, and families with?
Many young people experience emotional and psychological challenges, which can heavily impact their lives. For them and their families, these can be tricky to navigate, and it’s not always clear what the best way is to help. If you’re considering an assessment or therapy, but are unsure where to start, we can discuss this with you during a brief free-of-charge telephone consultation or at our first appointment.

· Early childhood attachment problems
· Parent-child or family relationship problems, and difficulties in friendships
· Trauma, loss, and the impact of divorce
· Anxiety and low mood
