What I Do & My Process

I provide support for parents who are struggling to engage with or manage their child’s behaviour.  I specialise in parents of teens and pre-teens (10-16 year olds).  I cover topics such as teen brain development; communication; setting boundaries; internet safety; and problem-solving. 

I provide strategies for coping with everyday stressors.  We all have triggers that set off our stress response and in the long term, this can have detrimental effects on us mentally, emotionally, and physically.  I offer support to find your stress-busters and how to nurture yourselves. 

I offer a free discovery call which is an informal discussion to identify areas of need and resources that could prove helpful.  Once this has been completed a course of action is agreed.  Support is offered online via Zoom and can be 1 to 4 sessions as needed.  The sessions have optional worksheets and a recommended course book, all of which are accredited resources, and supported by the Welsh Government. 

My Results & How This Can Help You

I have been delivering this support for almost 14 years and have helped hundreds of families find harmony and ways to engage and understand each other.   

Do you struggle to understand your teen?  Do you Struggle with communication?  Are you worried about Internet Safety?  Relationships?  Drug Use?  Would you like to help your teen make choices and understand consequences?  DO you need support with problem-solving as a family?  I can help with these issues. 

My relaxation and stress management techniques are helpful and provide support over several years to family, parents, and children.  I have been particularly successful in providing relaxation scripts for parents whose children are anxious or who struggle to get to sleep.

If you (or your child) are finding life stressful or struggling to sleep, I can offer ideas to help.  I can also tailor relaxation scripts for you to download that will help.  Have a personal Stress Management Plan just for you to help you cope.
