SUPPORT FOR YOUR CHILD OR TEEN

Support for children (8+ years) and teens—a space to feel heard, supported, and understood

Some children and teens carry big feelings quietly.  They might be wondering where they fit, feeling overwhelmed by changes in friendships or family life, or simply needing space to breathe and be themselves.


I offer support for young people who need a moment—one that feels safe, relaxed, and free from pressure.  A space where they can talk things through, feel heard, and start to make sense of what’s going on.


We might chat online, walk side-by-side, or even sit together on the grass in a quiet park. Whatever feels most comfortable, we’ll find a way that suits them.


Together, we explore:


  • What’s feeling tricky, heavy, or confusing
  • How they’re feeling and why it matters
  • Strengths they might not realise they have
  • Relationships—with family, friends, and themselves
  • What’s important to them, and how to move forward


There’s no right way to show up. We go at their pace, in a way that feels natural and supportive.



Wondering if this could help your child or teen?

 No pressure. No rush. Just a moment to talk things through, feel supported, and explore what’s going on. 


Whether it’s online, walking side-by-side, or sitting in a quiet park—we’ll find what feels right.


  • Find a time that suits 
  • Ask anything, anytime, or 
  • Simply explore what’s possible



take a moment for them

what working together feels like

I am here to support your child or teen in achieving their goals and to support them to live a more joyful, fulfilled and balanced life.  Working together can feel like: 


  • Honest chats
  • Small shifts that make a big difference
  • Feeling a bit more like themselves again
  • A space that meets them where they’re at


Whether they’re feeling stuck, anxious, disconnected, or simply unsure—I’m here to walk alongside them. 

why book with me

For kids and teens, it can be hard to talk openly—especially when they feel watched, judged, or misunderstood. Sometimes, even the kindest family or teacher can carry expectations that make it tricky to say what’s really going on.


When they come to me, they’re stepping into a space that’s separate from all that. I’m not part of their everyday world, and I don’t bring any assumptions or history. Just calm, steady support and a genuine interest in how things feel for them.


They don’t need to perform, explain, or be anyone but themselves. Whether they’re quiet, unsure, overwhelmed, or just figuring things out—I’m here to listen, reflect, and help them feel a little more understood.

Some young people feel more at ease talking while moving—especially outdoors. 


These sessions offer a relaxed space to walk, pause, and chat, without the pressure of sitting face-to-face.


We might explore nature together, sit quietly, or simply follow their lead. There’s no rush, and no need to talk the whole time.


Support might touch on big feelings, friendship ups and downs, school stress, or simply needing someone to listen. We also explore what matters to them—values, strengths, and the things that help them feel steady and understood.


Before we begin, I offer a short phone call with a parent or caregiver to talk through safety, consent, and what support could look like.

Support might touch on big feelings, friendship ups and downs, school stress, or simply needing someone to listen. We also explore what matters to them—values, strengths, and the things that help them feel steady and understood.


Each session moves at their pace, with space to pause, ask questions, or take breaks.


In the first session, we begin with an online intake session with a parent or caregiver to make sure this format feels safe and supportive.
