The Youth Fairy

The Youth Fairy A modern, solution-focused approach to positive change for children, teens and young adults. You can be confident your child is in a trusted pair of hands.

UK wide team specialising in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy. I'm Sian, founder of The Youth Fairy, and I’m dedicated to helping children and teenagers struggling with the effects of anxiety, stress, anger, and low confidence make significant, long term, positive change. I offer a 1-hour consultation face to face in Denton or online, to discuss your child's situation and how I can help them regain more emotional control and see them feeling happier, calmer and much more confident in a relatively short amount of time. As well as helping young people make these changes, I’m passionate that educating them on their mental health is such an important and essential part of the change process. In the consultation, I’ll explain to you and your child how the brain works to create their specific problems and associated feelings, behaviours or symptoms. This understanding can be really motivational to children as they realise there is hope, see more clearly what we can do about it and how to promote more mentally healthy behaviours in the future. This knowledge is super helpful for you as a parent too - it allows for greater understanding, creates a common language to talk more easily with your child about their well-being and gives you specific ideas of how you can best support the process (and beyond). And because this modern, well-researched approach is solution focused, it means your child won’t have to focus on the past in great detail or revisit traumatic events to move towards their preferred future goals. You’ll also get my relaxation audio downloads to help to improve any sleep problems they are having and support the process. In addition to thousands of clinical hours working with young people in my therapy practice, I have worked in education for over a decade as a teacher and previously as a Head of Year, responsible for the social and emotional well-being of the children in my care. You'll also find me out in the local community offering workshops for young people, parents and well-being programmes for teachers and children in primary and secondary schools. I hold an Enhanced DBS and am fully insured.

💗 This week’s blog takes a gentle but important look at a deeply emotional topic -

The death of a baby before, during, or shortly after birth can have a profound impact on the whole family — including siblings, who may struggle to understand what’s happened. In this week’s blog, we explore how to talk to children about baby loss with honesty, empathy, and care — and ways to support their emotional wellbeing through grief.

We will be looking at..

�✨ How to talk to children about the death of a baby in a way that feels honest and safe�✨ How children grieve differently depending on their age and understanding�✨ The impact of grief on the brain and emotions�✨ Practical ways to help children process and express their feelings�✨ Gentle activities and rituals to help families honour and remember their baby

💫 By speaking openly and compassionately, we can help children feel safe, supported, and understood - even in the most difficult moments. 💫

🧡 The month of October is also known as , which seeks to educate people on this neurodevelopmental condition, the associated challenges it can bring and to celebrate neurodiversity.

👉 ADHD stands for ‘Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.’ As ADHD affect’s a person’s executive functioning (the part of our brain that controls our impulses, ability to concentrate and manage tasks simultaneously), this condition can impact on an individual’s ability to organise themselves, prioritise tasks and sustain concentration.

As the NHS states, symptoms can fall into either of the following two categories:
😔 Inattentiveness (difficulty with focus and concentration)
😔 Hyperactivity and Impulsiveness (doing or saying things without weighing up the consequences first)

The presence of symptoms does not mean a child definitely has ADHD and indeed some of the above symptoms can be typical for a child’s particular stage of social and emotional development. If you are concerned your child or teenager may have ADHD, it is always advisable to seek the guidance of your GP who will be able to refer your child to a specialist for assessment. Most cases of ADHD are typically diagnosed by the time a child reaches twelve years of age.

If you are concerned about your child or teenager, head on over to The Parent Pad to read this week’s blog in full to find more information on:

👉 The symptoms of ADHD
👉 Ways to support your child
👉 What to do and where to go for further help and support
