Parent Consultations

Why Parent Consultations?
A space to pause, reflect, and make sense of your child’s emotional world.
These sessions are not about judgement or quick fixes. They are about:
- Understanding behaviour
- Exploring emotional needs
- Noticing patterns at home
- Finding ways forward that feel manageable and real
Meg was our son’s therapist during an incredibly difficult time, when he was experiencing anxiety linked to very difficult experiences in his transition to high school. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to support us.
From the very first conversation, I knew she was the right fit. She brought such warmth, kindness, and compassion, not only toward our son but toward us as parents as well. She made me feel genuinely understood and supported, which meant so much during a time that felt very overwhelming.
Her kind and thoughtful approach created a safe space where our son could open up about what he was going through. At the same time, she helped us feel supported and reassured, as though we weren’t facing it all alone.
PARENT
Starting therapy
Taking the first step can feel daunting. I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation to give you the opportunity to tell me a little about your child, ask any questions, and explore whether play therapy feels like the right fit for your family. There is no obligation to continue.
For children
Sessions are based around play. This might include drawing, storytelling, imaginative play, or simply being.
There is no pressure to talk or perform. I follow the child’s pace.
Over time, therapy can support children to:
Feel more emotionally settled
Understand their feelings
Express themselves more safely
Feel more secure in relationships

For parents
Parent work is a space to slow things down and make sense of what is happening at home.
We might explore:
What behaviour might be communicating
Emotional patterns in the family
Your responses and what shapes them
Ways to strengthen connection
There is no expectation of perfection, only understanding.

Working together
I may work with children, parents, or both depending on need. I also liaise with schools where appropriate.
The aim is always the same: understanding what is going on underneath, so things can shift from the inside out.
If you’re unsure
It’s completely okay to feel unsure. You don’t need to have it all figured out — just a starting point.
