This time of year often asks something different of us. Less pushing, less striving, more listening.
I’ve written a reflective piece on Substack about slowing down, honouring our limits, and what winter can teach us about being human. It’s been shaped by my own reflections and a book that has really resonated with me recently. If this season feels heavy or quietly demanding, you might find something here that helps you exhale a little.

At this time of year, I notice a quiet tension that often sits beneath the surface for many of us.

I just wanted to pop on and say a huge thank you. Over the last few days so many of you have bought a copy of my book and I am honestly blown away. Seeing the orders come through and reading your reviews has been incredibly moving.

This book came from years of sitting alongside children and families who were struggling and feeling unseen, and from my own journey as a parent too. To know it is now finding its way into so many homes means more than I can really put into words.

If you have already bought a copy, thank you for trusting me with something so close to my heart. And if you have left a review, please know how much that helps this book reach the families who need it most.

If you have not picked up a copy yet and you are supporting a child or young person who is anxious about school, overwhelmed, or finding things hard, it may be a really helpful place to start.

And if you know someone who might need this right now, I would be so grateful if you shared this post with them. Sometimes the right words just need to land in the right hands. Link in comments

Young people are often told they need to become more resilient when they experience anxiety related to school. My views on this are somewhat but in my experience they are the most resilient young people you will ever meet 🧡

I’ve been writing more over on Substack lately about supporting young people who struggle with anxiety around school, especially those who are neurodivergent. I’m sharing ideas, real-life experience and practical tools for parents and professionals who want a kinder, more compassionate approach. If this is something that matters to you too, I’d love you to join me there. 💛

Christmas can be overwhelming for neurodivergent young people and exhausting for the parents who love them.
I’m sharing this as both a mum and a therapist who understands how hard this season can feel.
I’ve created a free guide, A Gentler Christmas, to help families lower pressure and support nervous systems with more compassion.

Morning I wanted to let you know that I’ve recently added a small range of low-cost resources to support parents who have young people struggling with anxiety .

These include a series of short, easy-to-read mini guides, a webinar that offers a compassionate overview of Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA), and my book, which brings together everything I’ve learned as a therapist and parent supporting children through school-related anxiety.

My aim is simply to make good quality help more accessible for families who are feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start.

If you’ve ever wondered what really sits beneath school anxiety, I’ve written about why I felt compelled to write my EBSA book and what young people have taught me. You can read the full piece on my Substack .
