Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to speak to a group of parents about one of my greatest passions - understanding how a child’s mind and emotions shape their ability to learn, grow, and thrive.
So often, what looks like a learning difficulty is really a reflection of what’s happening beneath the surface - stress, self-doubt, perfectionism, or emotional overload.
When we focus only on performance, we miss the deeper story.
As both a psychologist and a mother, I believe that mental wellbeing and academic success are inseparable.
Supporting a child’s mind is not just about therapy - it’s about connection, curiosity, and compassion in everyday moments.
