What does therapy look like here?
We might talk about masking, sensory overwhelm, social pressure, shutdowns, meltdowns, identity, work, relationships, family expectations, anxiety, low mood, or the tiredness that comes from just trying to fit into places that were not built with you in mind. We will not rush to labels or solutions. Instead, we’ll simply make space for what is true for you.
Support that meets young people where they are
Children and teenagers do not always have the words for what is happening inside. Sometimes distress comes out as anger, withdrawal, tears, avoidance, restlessness, masking, or a feeling that school and life are simply too much.
Therapy offers a safe space to notice, name and understand what is going on.
Working with families, not against them
We know parents and carers often arrive tired, worried or unsure what to do next. Our work can include gentle conversations with the adults around a young person, so everyone has more shared understanding.
We keep the young person’s trust and dignity at the centre of the work.
Who it can be for
Children who find big feelings hard to manage.
Teenagers who feel anxious, low, misunderstood or overloaded.
Young people with ADHD, autism or other neurodivergent experiences.
Families looking for calmer ways to understand what is happening.
What to expect
Sessions are adapted to the young person. Some people talk. Some need time. Some use drawing, movement, silence or short answers. There is no one right way to do therapy.
We move carefully and kindly, helping the young person feel less alone with what they are carrying.
