| I know many therapists will
not see children, but I am happy to treat children in the presence of
their parents. I have seen children from the age of 5 up to
18. Young children can be a bit fidgety and wont necessarily close
their eyes and relax, but treatment can still be effective and even some
simple story telling or visualisation can have a beneficial effect on
young children.
The most common reasons I see children
are:
- to overcome bed-wetting -
children commonly come at the age of 11, just before going to senior
school, but I would advise you to come much sooner, as the longer it
goes on the stronger the habit becomes. It is very rarely a
medical problem and more likely just a learned behaviour. Often
the child has learned to sleep through wetting themselves (I blame
disposable nappies for this) and we have to re-educate their
subconscious mind to recognise when the bladder needs emptying and
wake the child so that they can get to the loo in time.
- to overcome fears - of spiders,
dogs, other kids, going to school, vegetables!!
- for study reasons - to be able
to concentrate and listen, to be calm in exams, to believe in
themselves.
Sessions for children are half-price -
and very beneficial for you as well as your child!
