Supporting Children & Parents When Emotions Feel Overwhelming

I’m Catherine, a licensed clinician and trainer based in Bristol, working with families across Bristol and beyond via Zoom.With over 30 years’ experience in mental health, including 26 years as a Specialist Clinician in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS).

I offer structured, evidence-informed support for children and young people aged 3–21, alongside sleep consultations and parenting support.

My approach integrates trauma-informed, attachment-based and evidence-informed practice, with a strong focus on nervous system regulation, containment and repair. Whether working with a child directly or supporting a parent, the aim is the same — greater emotional regulation, steadier relationships and clearer parenting.

As a parent, I’ve experienced the full spectrum of family life — the joys, the challenges, and everything in between, from babyhood to adulthood. That experience informs my work with calm presence and empathy.

Alongside therapy, I provide workshops and training for schools, nurseries and professional organisations.
