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.
