My approach
For twenty years, I have supported children aged 2 to 15, focusing on early intervention and proactive developmental support. I believe that addressing developmental challenges early on can significantly improve a child's confidence and daily functioning.
I adopt a holistic, integrative approach, considering the child's developmental history, including prenatal, perinatal and posnatal factors. I also consider environmental and lifestyle factors such as behaviour, diet, sleep patterns, and school progress.
​
My process involves an individual assessment of primitive reflexes, providing feedback and guidance to parents to support the child's needs. My goal is to understand the underlying developmental roots of a child's difficulties, offering a perspective that complements their educational and home life. Drawing on my background, I provide information and strategies regarding sensory-motor, cognitive, and social-emotional development. I also offer support with parenting and educational strategies to help foster each child's developmental potential.
