What do you and your child need most right now?

Let’s find the support that actually fits your family

 

Dear {{ first_name }}, 

 

By now, you’ve probably realised that parenting a neurodivergent, sensitive or deeply feeling child or teenager doesn’t follow a script.

Some days feel manageable.


Some feel like survival.


And often, you’re left wondering: What does my child/teenager actually need? And what do I need to support them?

 

This week, I want to make things easier.

 

We’ve created a short check-in questionnaire that helps you get clearer on what support might be right for you and your child at this stage.

 

It only takes a minute or two, and based on your answers, you’ll be guided toward the best next step:

 

  • đź§  Assessment – if you're wondering whether your child is neurodivergent and you want clarity, validation, or a roadmap

 

  • ❤️ Therapy / Intervention – if you already know, and you're ready for support, strategies, and emotional tools to move forward

 

✨ Click here to take the quick check-in → [Insert Kajabi assessment link]

 

There’s no pressure, no judgment — just a warm, clear way to figure out what’s next.

 

And of course, if you ever need to talk it through, myself or the EPT Team are available every Thursday in the Membership for a LIVE check in.

 

You don’t have to figure this out alone. 

 

Speak soon,

 

Your Child and Adolescent Psychologist,

Support the body first
As February comes to an end, many families notice emotions sitting closer to the surface. This is okay Xx   When this happens, it’s tempting to talk more, explain more, or reason harder. But emotional regulation begins in the body. If the sensory system is overwhelmed, the thinking brain cannot come online. This is why logic so often fails in moments of distress. Support the body first.The feel...
You don’t have to be perfect to help
Many of us are emotionally stretched - juggling lots of people's needs! And when children struggle, we often feel pressure to stay endlessly calm. But co-regulation isn’t about perfection.   It’s about presence.   Children don’t need us to erase our feelings.They need to feel we can stay connected while feelings move through the space. A regulated adult doesn’t mean a silent one. It means a ste...
Rest is Action
This week - it's okay to notice exhaustion. For neurodivergent children, exhaustion can happen more easily than for other kids (and for neurodivergent adults too). You are taking in more sensory information, so it makes sense that this would be tiring.  It can look like slowing down.Withdrawing.Resisting.Shutting off. And for parents, it often brings fear: “What if this doesn’t lift?”“What if w...
