Parent Space
Parenting can be stressful. Parenting when you are stressed is really hard. Parenting when your child feels stressed is even harder. 1:1 Parent Space sessions offer a safe and reassuring time to think together about your child. We will think about what you need and we will think about what your child needs. You might find Parent Space useful if your child is struggling with anxiety. It might be a space to think about family changes, feelings and behaviours. I will be there to listen and offer support and ideas for you and your family.
​
Parent Space Sessions - £60 per session. You can choose to book a single session or block of 3 sessions.
