Individuals and Families

Parenting support

When you want to talk with a professional about a specific question you as a parent have. Or when you want to talk about the difficulties you experience and want to get some feedback. We can have a conversation where you can talk to me about your thoughts and the difficulties you’re experiencing. From my experience, I’ll give you my professional reflections, which can help you to get new insights. This can be one conversation or a couple of conversations. When more is needed we’ll decide together how you can get the best fitting help.

 

Working with the whole family

When there are difficulties in the communication and interaction between family members it is good to work together towards a better balance in your family. I have a systemic approach, which means I view the problems of an individual in relation to the different contexts in a person's life.

Family can be both a great source of support for people but also a source of distress, misunderstanding and pain. With my approach, I try to enable all family members to support each other. This is important to cope as a family with difficulties within or outside your family.

Individual help for your child

When your child has some specific needs or skills to learn. Such as social skills, learning how to concentrate, learning about their feelings and emotions and how to deal with this in an appropriate way.

When your child can use some extra individual help I keep in contact with you as parents. Your child needs your help to apply his learned skills at home and at school.

• At my office
  • Work on special skills such as communication, emotions, social. Self-confidence, concentration.
  • In a non-distractive room

• At your home
  • Work on special skills such as communication, emotions, social skills, self-confidence, concentration
  • In a familiar place for the child
  • Possibility to have interactions with parents and siblings as part of the session.

  • Possibility to work with a group of children with the same needs
  • In classroom work/ observation

 

I also do Skype conversations, especially for expat parents and teenagers. But also for local parents, this could be a good option, we explore this option together during our first conversation.
