Connected Parenting UK

Raising children and teenagers can be a physical and emotional rollercoaster, especially if they are Neurodivergent, sensitive, or challenging.

Sometimes it can feel like you are totally alone, and no one understands how hard it is. The good news is that I understand, and I can help. Working together we will discover an approach to parenting which works for you and your family and will equip you to deal with any challenges which may arise in the future.

I offer support and guidance through my ONLINE service, so I can work with you wherever you live, during the day or in the evenings. I also offer FACE TO FACE sessions in my clinic, based in South Devon and initial HOME VISITS within the local area.

I work with parents of children & teenagers who do not have a diagnosis & those who have a range of diagnoses such as:

Autism, ADHD, PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance), ODD (Oppositional Defiance Disorder), Conduct Disorder, Separation Anxiety, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Social Phobia

I will work directly with you (and not your child or teenager). You are the expert and are the best person to help.

Does your child or teenager have any of these difficulties:

  • Aggression problems-tantrums, meltdowns, physical violence to self or others, destroys things
  • Anxiety based problems – nightmares, obsessions, compulsions, panic attacks
  • Agitation based problems – scared, nervous, unable to express feelings, restless, reckless, impulsive, scattered attention
  • Adrenaline based problems – engages in alarming behaviour, attracted to dangerous pursuits, doesn’t see danger coming
  • Controlling and demanding behaviour, strong resistance
  • Fiercely independent – doesn’t take direction or ask for help
  • Resists having a connection with you – pushes you away
  • Separation anxiety
  • Extreme shyness
  • Sibling rivalry
  • Struggling with separation and divorce

THE CHALLENGES YOU FACE:

  • Do you find parenting overwhelming and exhausting?
  • Do you feel at a loss to know how to help your child or teenager?
  • Are there times when you feel out of control and lose your temper?
  • Are your child’s or teenager’s ups and downs impacting the whole family?
  • Do you find that the advice you have been given just doesn’t work  and seems to make things worse?
