I offer specialist emotional wellbeing and therapeutic support for children and young people with SEND, including ADHD, autism, anxiety, trauma and emotional regulation differences.
This support is designed to help young people feel safer, calmer and more confident — particularly where traditional talking therapies or school-based approaches have not fully met their needs.
SEND support is not just about the child — it involves parents, carers, siblings and the wider education and care system. My approach is relational, collaborative and centred on emotional wellbeing as well as practical support.
I also work collaboratively with schools, alternative provisions, social care teams and other professionals to ensure joined-up, child-centred support.
This may include:
• Consultation around individual pupils
• Trauma-informed and neurodivergent practice guidance
• Emotional wellbeing strategies
• Collaborative planning around EHCP outcomes
• Supporting transitions and reintegration
• Multi-agency communication
My approach is calm, relational and grounded in safeguarding and inclusion.

My work is trauma-informed and relational, focusing on emotional regulation, wellbeing and creating a strong sense of safety. It is distinct from formal counselling or psychotherapy, and instead offers practical, nurturing support tailored to each young person’s individual profile.
Children and young people with SEND
• neurodivergent young people
• those experiencing emotional distress, anxiety or trauma
• families seeking supportive therapeutic input
• schools, agencies and local authorities

Therapeutic wellbeing support is charged at an hourly rate or as a bespoke package, upon request.
(Professional/school rates by agreement.)
