What we help with
How Myra can help
Some people come for therapy, some for an assessment, and some for both. Many aren’t sure yet, and that’s a good place to start a conversation.
Therapy
She supports people experiencing:
- Anxiety and mood concerns
- Trauma and the impact of adverse experiences
- Emotional and behavioural regulation
- Obsessive–compulsive presentations
- Perfectionism and self-esteem difficulties
- Eating disorders and body image concerns
- Parenting and family challenges
- Sleep difficulties in children
- Social and communication difficulties
- School anxiety and attendance difficulties
- Stress, adjustment, grief and loss
- Neurodevelopmental conditions, including ADHD and Autism
Assessment
Assessment may explore:
- Attention and executive functioning (ADHD)
- Autism and neurodevelopmental profiles
- Specific learning difficulties, including dyslexia
- Intellectual and cognitive functioning
Where appropriate, assessment considers information across home, school, work and other settings to develop a comprehensive picture of the person’s functioning. Myra aims to translate assessment findings into clear, practical and individualised recommendations that can support learning, wellbeing and everyday functioning.
