I have a solution-focused approach using NLP techniques to help children who require support with issues such as emotional difficulties, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and lack of confidence. I help them to create a positive outlook and teach long-lasting practical skills and techniques that children can use to help them cope with the emotional challenges that life will undoubtedly throw at them.

NLP can effect changes very quickly, unlike other psychological services such as counselling, CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), and DBT. Typically 4-8 sessions (weekly or fortnightly) can make a long-term change providing the young person is willing and more importantly, wanting to feel better.

I was always interested in the concepts of NLP from my late teens and found them very useful to try on myself. NLP is an approach which is very solution-focused and is particularly ideal for children – who all love to be creative and are open to learning new things.

Having personally suffered with ADHD, Dyslexia and Anxiety I well remember the nightmare that school represented to me.

All this ‘experience’ has given me a lot of skills with children who face a myriad of potential challenges in today’s world, at a time when there is a desperate shortage of professional and therapeutic services and NHS long waiting lists that can exceed two years.

I offer a free consultation to give me a chance to get to know your child and you to make sure we are comfortable with each other and to explain some of the basic ideas of NLP and how it can help.

My therapy room is situated in a peaceful and relaxing setting and is specifically designed to put your child at ease.

Children are such fun to work with and I believe that I can make a difference in their lives. I aim to help all children to love life, to embrace the challenges it brings and to recognise life as a privilege to be enjoyed as much as possible!
