Children and adolescents

Myra has a particular interest in supporting children and adolescents with emotional regulation, school engagement and school-related difficulties.

Approaches we draw on

Myra draws on a broad range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Schema Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), mindfulness-based approaches and Play Therapy.

Her work with trauma, emotional regulation, Schema Therapy and EMDR extends across the lifespan. When working with children and adolescents, interventions are adapted developmentally and may involve parents or caregivers where appropriate, recognising the important role of relationships, family systems and the young person’s broader environment in supporting change.
