Child & young people psychotherapist & Parenting Coach


Things I can help with are anxiety, stress, low mood, sEND, school avoidance, Anger & agression, low confidence, challenging behaviour, OCD, parents support & coaching

Whether you or your child feel stuck, anxious, or not able to cope as best as you would like, you are not alone, and I am here to help. Let’s get it all out of the closet, and work towards understanding, acceptance, self-compassion and greater calm.

When working with children I use child-led therapeutic and creative play, which enables them to express their emotions in a safe way and to develop the skills they need to grow, learn and regulate emotions. For older children as well as play I also use mindfulness based CBT techniques which empowers them to understand how their brain works and change unhealthy thought patterns.


PARENTING RESOURCES

Based on my experience working with children and young people, I have put together some tips on how to approach some of the parenting challenges we come across. This is just some of the many things we as parents face, but I am hoping it provides a good starting point.


About Me

I am Stani, a Child & Young People Psychotherapist, Parenting Coach and Mindfulness Teacher, and a mum of two young boys. I have a neurodivergent family, so I know how challenging parenting can be. This has inspired me greatly to help other parents navigate parenting challenges in a better way. I am a SEND champion, practising in a neuroaffirmative way and am an advocate for greater awareness and understanding of neurodivergent children and adults.
