Case study 1

We provide specialist, individually tailored therapy for children and young people experiencing ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), emotional dysregulation, and related behavioural or emotional difficulties.

Many of the children and teenagers we work with describe feeling as though they are constantly on an emotional roller coaster. Small setbacks can trigger overwhelming frustration, disappointment, anxiety, or anger. Emotions often feel bigger, more intense, and harder to manage than they do for their peers, leading to difficulties at home, school, and in friendships.

Our therapeutic approach is designed specifically for children and adolescents who struggle to regulate their emotions, control their impulses, and respond effectively when faced with challenges. Sessions are highly engaging, interactive, creative, and adapted to each child's individual strengths, interests, and developmental needs.

Case Study 2 

Our Approach Can Be Particularly Helpful For Children & Young People Who Experience:

  • Frequent emotional outbursts, meltdowns, or explosive reactions

  • Difficulty coping with disappointment, frustration, or setbacks

  • ADHD-related impulsivity and emotional reactivity

  • Oppositional or defiant behaviours

  • Overwhelming anxiety and excessive worry

  • Friendship difficulties and social challenges

  • Intense emotional sensitivity

  • Self-sabotaging or self-defeating behaviours

  • Poor self-esteem and low confidence

  • Difficulties managing conflict at home or school

We Provide A Creative & Engaging Therapeutic Experience

Children learn best when they feel safe, understood, and engaged.

Our therapy sessions are highly interactive and creatively tailored to each young person. Depending on the child's age, interests, and therapeutic goals, sessions may incorporate games, visual tools, creative exercises, problem-solving activities, emotional literacy work, and practical skills coaching.

This personalised approach helps children remain motivated, engaged, and actively involved in the therapeutic process, creating the conditions for meaningful and lasting change.

The Outcome

Our goal is not simply to reduce challenging behaviour. Our aim is to help children and young people develop the emotional awareness, resilience, confidence, and practical skills they need to thrive at home, at school, and in their relationships. By learning how to understand and manage their emotions effectively, children are better equipped to navigate life's challenges, build healthier

Case Study 3

Develop Emotional Awareness & Regulation

  • Many children who experience emotional dysregulation struggle to recognise what they are feeling until emotions have already escalated.

  • Through therapy, children learn to identify and understand their emotions as they arise, recognise their personal triggers, and develop greater awareness of the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

  • As emotional awareness improves, children become better able to respond thoughtfully to difficult situations rather than reacting impulsively in ways that create further problems.

Build Practical Coping Skills

  • When emotions become overwhelming, many children rely on ineffective coping strategies such as shouting, aggression, avoidance, withdrawal, or impulsive behaviour.

  • Our therapists help children develop a toolkit of practical, evidence-based coping strategies that can be used both at home and in school. These skills enable children to tolerate distress more effectively, reduce impulsivity, and manage challenging emotions with greater confidence.

Improve Relationships & Social Skills

  • Strong relationships are fundamental to emotional wellbeing.

  • Children and young people learn how to communicate their needs more effectively, express emotions appropriately, ask for support when needed, and develop healthy interpersonal boundaries.

  • We also help children navigate friendship difficulties, manage conflict constructively, and build the social confidence necessary to develop and maintain positive relationships.

Develop an Individualised Emotional Regulation Plan

  • Every child is unique, which is why we create personalised strategies tailored to their specific strengths, challenges, triggers, and goals.

  • Together with their therapist, children learn to identify situations that commonly lead to emotional overwhelm and develop a personalised "cope ahead" plan that equips them with practical tools to manage these situations more successfully in the future.

Apply Skills in Everyday Life

  • Learning new skills is only valuable if children can use them outside the therapy room.

  • Our sessions include engaging activities, experiential exercises, and practical between-session challenges that help children transfer what they have learned into real-world situations.

  • This approach promotes lasting change by helping children practise and strengthen new skills across home, school, friendships, and everyday life.
