ABOUT NURTURED NEURONS
My aim
Offering a range of different therapeutic strategies to support children and young people.
Children’s mental health and emotional well-being is the heart of the therapeutic work I carry out. Using a connection based approach, consisting of a variety of therapeutic strategies. I support the safe processing and expression of emotions and experiences. The interventions I have been trained in are backed by rigorous research in neuroscience, attachment theory, child development and the creative arts.
It’s not unusual for children and young people to experience strong emotions and feel overwhelmed by them, this can have a negative impact on their day to day lives.
My aim is help children to overcome any issues they may have and support them to develop emotional resilience.
