Neurodevelopmental Practitioner
Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP)
Auditory Therapy to support auditory processing
Specialised Yoga Therapy
I am a therapist based in Edinburgh, specialising in supporting children with neurodevelopment delay and related challenges. Over the past 4 years I have worked with families to support children experiencing dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADHD and autistic traits providing practical and personalised strategies to support their development. I trained with The Key Clinic and use neurodevelopment exercises to address underlying reflexes that can impact learning and behaviour. Alongside this, I offer auditory therapy and special yoga therapy, tailored for children with additional needs. To further support children’s needs, I use NLP strategies helping people who struggle with anxiety or low mood to build resilience and confidence. My approach, is holistic, evidence-based and family-centred, aiming not only to address the root causes of developmental challenges but also to give children the tools they need to thrive at home, in school and in life.
As a parent, and having volunteered in various child based centres, I has a wealth of experience working and adapting to children's needs on an individual basis. I have spent the last 11 years running my own Yoga, Life Coaching, Massage and Mindfulness Business, predominantly working on a one-to-one basis with people in order to help with anxiety, stress, depression, and physical issues for pain, and disabilities.
