A new school year started today for many children. New beginnings can result in some anxiety but accepting anxious feelings can be the first step in enjoying a new start 😊

School-based anxiety can look different for every child - sore heads, tummy aches, trouble sleeping, tears, anger, feeling overwhelmed at the thought of the school day. It can be incredibly difficult for children, and for parents who want so much to help.

I am a former teacher, so I understand the school environment from both an educational and therapeutic perspective.

I offer a calm, supportive space where children can make sense of their worries, build confidence, and learn practical ways to manage anxiety. I can also work alongside parents and schools as consistency often makes the biggest difference.

If school anxiety is affecting your child, I'd be happy to have a chat about how therapy could help. 💛

Anxiety, OCD, Emotional Distress, Low Self-Esteem and Low Mood can sometimes take over your life, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and caught up with racing thoughts.

These difficulties can be incredibly distressing but support can make a real difference.

I am Kate Somerville, an accredited Counsellor, CBT Therapist and Clinical Supervisor with 10 years experience.

I support adults, children and young people with a range of emotional challenges, creating a supportive and confidential space where you can feel heard and understood.

Therapy could help you or your child to better understand your situation and work towards meaningful change at your own pace.

Helping children and young people express emotions and understand themselves can be done using child led play therapy or cognitive behavioural therapy.
Through a trusting relationship I can help your child navigate through challenges and calm difficult emotions.

I work face to face from Chryston, North Lanarkshire.

The more we interact with every worried thought, the more tangled our minds can become. Repeatedly engaging with worries can increase or maintain anxiety, keeping us caught in a cycle of "what ifs." Not every worry needs an answer. Sometimes the most helpful response is to acknowledge the thought, let it pass, and refocus on the present moment.
