Specialist in teaching and coaching with person-centred and therapeutic approaches for children and young people who are struggling emotionally, socially and/or experiencing barriers to learning.
This might be related to:
- trauma (including trauma caused by impact of unsupportive environments, particularly for neurodivergent children and young people e.g autistic burnout, bullying, discrimination).
- social anxiety
- school phobia
- communication differences that impact on ability to be and feel understood by others and relate to others e.g. Neurodivergence, Selective Mutism, Relational/Developmental Trauma or developmental language needs.
We provide:
- specialist assessments with young person, family and settings to gain insights into the unique profile of the young person;
- specialist interventions that support the child or young person’s sensory profile to increase wellbeing and ability to re-engage with the world and to access learning;
- facilitated ‘collaborative problem-solving’ meetings to plan for engagement in learning;
- guidance ‘every step of the way’ in the implementation of a bespoke engagement or reintegration plan;
- short-term coaching and mentoring personalised to the young person’s interests that supports social engagement and improvements in self-confidence and well-being.
