Emotional Wellbeing Practitioner
Helping children to understand their feelings and learn to shine
A gentle approach to children's wellbeing. I provide personalised support to help children to understand their emotions, develop a toolbox of strategies to manage them, build confidence and resilience, and a nurture a positive sense of self.
Children can experience big feelings but they don't always have the words to explain them or the skills to manage them and to regulate. It can be hard for children to understand how each emotion can show up differently in their body, and without that understanding, it's hard for them to know what will help them.
Perhaps your child:
-
Struggles with big emotions or frequent emotional meltdowns
-
Worries a lot and finds it hard to manage their anxiety
-
Feels angry or frustrated and appears to go from 0-100 in no time at all
-
Has low confidence or self esteem
-
Struggles to manage friendships and finds it hard to know what to do in social situations
-
Finds changes and transitions difficult to manage
-
Has experienced something difficult they are trying to difficult to process
-
Struggles to think positively and challenge negative thoughts
-
Needs support to build resilience
Sometimes children need a safe space, someone who will listen without judgment and some gentle support to help them to make sense of their feelings and to learn ways to manage them.
