CHILD IN TIME

What Child in Time says

Are you feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice on how to support your children?
Perhaps your family has experienced an unexpected or traumatic event.
Sometimes ordinary developmental issues like emotional regulation, establishing sleeping patterns and eating well can be challenging.
Talking to a professional can help find the right approach for your family.

We offer evidence informed and client focussed online consultations for parents/carers. All sessions are run by qualified counsellors/therapists with specific child/adolescent training. Being able to access impartial support and advice from a qualified professional is key to our own well-being as well as that of our children.

In the early years stage especially, parents often struggle with emotional and behavioural issues that typify development at this stage, including emotional regulation, sibling rivalry, eating, sleep, boundaries and peer relationships. Parents may want to set up their parenting style and relationships for the future and can feel overwhelmed at the amount of parenting advice available. Our therapists can offer practical, tailored and supportive advice to help navigate this challenging time.

Additionally, parents of children of all ages, may have experienced a traumatic event, such as bereavement, abuse or separation and our therapists can offer support around how to talk to children about this and respond to them in a supportive and containing way. There may be big changes in the family such as separation or re-location during which time parents want to do everything they can to help their children feel secure. This service offers an anonymous safe space, giving you the opportunity to share and explore concerns in a non-judgmental environment.
