I have a great deal of experience working with children with a huge range of anxiety-related disorders and behavioural issues. I have extensive experience in ASD, Attachment Disorder and Pathological Demand Avoidance which I developed effective strategies for managing when working as a Teaching Assistant (a role I have had for the last 7 years) and previously running my own kid’s cookery school from home.

I first discovered NLP when my eldest son became extremely anxious and very low a few years ago. The techniques worked so quickly for him that I decided to train in NLP myself, so I can help others like him. Helping children build a bright future is my passion.

The emotional well-being of children and teenagers has never been so tested than during 2020. I have seen first hand how the enforced time off school, lack of social contact and new sets of rules (hands, face, space) have taken their toll. Inevitably, children and young people, pick up on our own worries and tensions, as well as what we’re hearing and seeing on the news and social media. This can lead to fears around returning to school, being outdoors among the public, being away from their parents/family and also about being in new environments etc.

The great news is that NLP is a fast-acting therapy – perfect for overcoming anxiety, lack of confidence, school refusal, anger, phobias, OCD and all other mental health-related issues.

My job is to work through these issues, teaching children and young people, a series of NLP4kids techniques to put them back in control of how they feel. These techniques give them the confidence to process and deal with whatever life throws at them. As we go through life, we all come across times when we face challenges that can take us out of our comfort zone, what we can do, is ensure your child has the tools to feel able to cope, keep control and live a happy and fulfilled life.

I live in the beautiful city of Bath with my husband, 2 sons, a dog called Waffle and a cat called Poppy. Thanks for stopping by to view my profile here at NLP4Kids and please reach out if you would like to find out more about how I can help your child.

How Does Our Therapy Help Children and Young People?

We use a combination of safe and effective therapies with children and teenagers that help them learn how to control their thoughts, emotions and behaviour. Our practitioners are specialists in working with children using a form of therapy called NLP. This stands for Neuro Linguistic Programming. "Neuro" relates to the brain and "linguistic" refers to language and how it is used inside the mind and out of the mouth! "Programming" describes the patterns and habits created, learnt and followed. Using NLP techniques and strategies, (which we have adapted to be fun, safe and easy for children and teenagers to use) we give young people the skills to think in new ways so that they feel in control and learn to understand the world from the perspective of others as well as their own. NLP is a cognitive form of therapy, with some parallels to CBT (cognitive behaviour therapy.) Our work is effective in helping children overcome bad habits, behaviour problems, fears and self esteem problems as well as many other challenges. (See the list below for more suggestions about the types of problems we can help with.)

In addition, our practitioners may have qualifications in other specialist therapies, such as EFT/TFT (tapping techniques), Coaching, Counselling and Hypnotherapy for children.

Hypnosis is perfectly safe for children because it is a relaxed state that they already utilise when learning, watching television or doing something creative. Some children will be able to experience a deep, eyes closed relaxing trance. Young children are usually more suited to an awakened trance. This is induced when playing games, colouring or whilst other activities that our Hypnotherapy4Kids practitioners have been trained to use. Our Hypnotherapists will notice the subtle shifts in your child�s levels of awareness so that they can begin to implant suggestions for change or improvement as soon as they see that an awakened trance is achieved.

The first step in helping your child is to contact a practitioner who is local to you. You can call them on the number above or complete the contact box below if you would like the practitioner to contact you. They will conduct a consultation with you, either over the phone or in person. Once they have understood the challenges your child is facing, they will invite you and your child to meet with them. If you decide to go ahead with some therapy or coaching sessions for your child, the therapist will advise you of the best course of action. Your therapist will give you feedback and advise to help you support your child and you will remain in full control of the number of sessions you book and how often. [Read Less]
