Elisabeth's Background

Throughout her career she has worked across the age ranges but more predominantly with children and young people who have experienced major life events and difficulties.
Elisabeth is a Psychology lecturer, keeping abreast of the most up to date research. She is a regular presenter at a number of mental health charities.
Working With Children and Young People
Elisabeth specialises in supporting children and young people to express their feelings and fears so they can learn to ask for help and develop tools to help themselves. 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. For parents like yourself, this can be a difficult experience. As a professional, Elisabeth provides a safe space for your child to express their difficulties, to recognise their own feelings and thoughts and to learn healthy new ways to manage them.
ADHD and Children on the Autistic Spectrum
Elisabeth has 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. She works with your child to explore their feelings in their own way and at their own pace so they feel empowered.
