Children & Adolescent Coaching – Complimentary Consultation
Is your child or teenager struggling with ADHD or other forms of neurodivergence?
Young people with ADHD, autism or learning differences often experience challenges with focus, organisation, emotional regulation and school demands. Difficulties with study and revision skills are often linked to executive function development, and many young people also struggle with confidence, social interaction and communication.
Through specialist coaching, I work directly with children and adolescents to strengthen executive function skills such as planning, organisation, study and revision strategies, sustained attention and task completion. We also work on emotional regulation, confidence, and developing stronger social and communication skills.
I support parents as well, helping them better understand their child’s needs and offering practical guidance that strengthens communication and support at home and in school.
Book a complimentary consultation to explore how we can support your child’s development, learning and wellbeing.

Tyla Stroebel
Psychologist, BA Psych Hons; MSc
Behaviour is Communication! At our practice, we dig beneath the surface to understand what’s really going on, whether it's sensory overload, communication differences, anxiety, or unmet needs. We provide neuroaffirming support that empowers kids and equips parents and educators with strategies that actually work.

The Psychology Hub
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
A large part of our work is with children and young people. That covers challenging and oppositional behaviour, emotional regulation, social difficulties and bullying, low self-esteem and low mood, school refusal and perfectionism, along with the assessment questions that often sit underneath: attention, learning, cognitive ability and school readiness. Work with younger children usually runs through play, art and sandplay. Parents and carers are part of the process, and with consent we will work alongside schools. We also see babies and infants for sleep, toileting and early behaviour concerns.
