THERAPY IN YOUR 20’S AND 30’S
Managing modern pressures in your 20’s and 30’s
As we move through life, we often face many life events and transitions. As we reach our thirties, there are expectations and goals to fulfil, from buying a house to career or family issues. These are hard enough to deal with, but if you have anxiety and/ or depression, it can make things especially tough.
THERAPY FOR CHILDREN
Healing for children and young people
It is hard to see your child struggle, whether they are experiencing problems at school, college or university, slamming doors at home or withdrawing from others. As professionals, our therapists provide a safe space for your child to express their difficulties and to learn new ways to manage them.
ADHD and Autism
Our practitioners have training and experience in working with children and young people who are on the autistic spectrum or have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and have anxiety or depression. They work with your child to explore their feelings in their own way and at their own pace so they feel empowered.
Let’s work together to move forward.
Please note that our therapists are unable to offer crisis support. If you or your child feel at risk of harming yourself or someone else, please speak to your GP, attend your local NHS A&E department or contact the Samaritans
