Parenting can be a challenge even when life is going smoothly.

Some children are very easy to manage, some present a few challenges, and some are a constant source of worry and frustration.

Common concerns that prompt a parent to seek therapy are:

Disobedience

Being Anxious or Timid

Aggression

Lying

Worrying

Temper Tantrums

Bullying

Fussiness

Bedtime refusal

Rudeness

Not listening

Strange behaviour

At Goldwyn Lane Wendy has over 30 years of experience of working with children and is able to offer professional support for you and your child.  Each child’s unique personality is taken into account so that appropriate interventions can be applied.  We believe the relationship between a parent and child should be relaxed and enjoyable.

Tip: How to Build Your Child’s Self-Esteem

Parental separation

It is often said that ‘Life was never meant to be easy’, but sometimes tough times for your family become even more difficult when your child is affected and starts to display behaviour that is out of character.  This is especially true when parents go through the difficult process of separation.  Many parents witness very distressing behaviours following the child’s return from visiting the other parent.  It is all too easy to conclude that the other parent is failing the child in some way.  But unfortunately, we have little control over what another adult does in their own home.  Wendy can show you how to manage this difficult time, make it much easier for your child’s emotions, and bring you peace of mind.
