Children - Age 8 Plus

Children

(Ages 8 Upwards)

An eclectic mix of Narrative, ACT, CBT, Mindfulness and Somatic Experiencing 

​

Usually about 4-6 sessions depending on the individual. (Funding is normally available for 12 -24 year olds).

​

  • The aim here is to work collaboratively with your young person in an age appropriate way and empower them to reconnect with their uniquely capable, resourceful self.

  • To establish and narrate the “I can,” the “I am good enough,” as they explore their beliefs, values and strengths and to facilitate them to reconnect with their drive and interest in life.

  • To work together in playfully gaining an understanding of the different facets of the problem(s) they might be experiencing, including the problem's effects, tactics and triggers, the beliefs and ideas that support it. 

  • To empower your young person to find solutions from their richly narrated resourceful self and their body's innate healing capacity, to help to claim their life back from the negative influences of these problems and live life more fully.

Take a look at my story book about how a young boy deals with worries.

  • To embrace the beauty of their emerging individuality and develop a positive view of themselves. 

  • To normalise the vulnerabilities and conflicts experienced in these teenage years.

  • To work through difficulties and problems that might be impacting this emerging self and which can try to convince them that they are "not good enough," "not capable," "that life isn't worth living" or that there is no hope.
