Description

Is your child feeling anxious or depressed?
Are you struggling to cope with challenging behaviour and emotional dysregulation?
Struggling to sleep?
Do you have children with neurodevelopmental difficulties?
Children with emotional issues?
Do you need help?
I can support you through this difficult time.

I am a mental health registered nurse with over 48 years experience in NHS mental health services and extensive Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), supporting young people with ADHD, autism, learning disabilities, anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties and challenging behaviour.

I am a qualified nurse on the Nursing Midwifery Council register. I have extensive experience of assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating mental health care, using a range of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy approaches, Solution Focussed Brief Therapy approaches, Applied Behaviour Analysis, Positive Behavioural Support and other therapeutic approaches.

I also support parents and carers of learning disabled children and people with neurodiversity, who present with challenging behaviour and executive functioning difficulties.

I held the position of Clinical Nurse Specialist for Nottinghamshire Healthcare for many years and lead the Children’s Learning Disability Team within CAMHS.

After leaving the NHS I worked in the private sector as a Consultant Nurse, and now work as an Independent Consultant Nurse.

I am qualified to use the ADI-R revised Autism diagnostic interview.

I am a Certified Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Life Coach and Certified Practitioner of Time Line Therapy with a special interest in ADHD coaching and Academic Life Coaching.

I use the Academic Life Coaching Programme covering the following areas:

1. Goal setting and academic vision
2. Study skills and strategies
3. Time management and productivity
4. Mindset and emotional resilience
5. Career and life alignment
6. Personal development and life skills.

Together we can create a bespoke plan drawing from a range of tried and tested therapeutic methods guided by NICE guidelines.
