I had the pleasure of speaking at the RTN Mental Health Solutions Conference in Bristol today, talking about co-regulation for parents and professionals.

16/10/2025

If after-school time feels more like surviving than thriving… breathe.
You’re doing your best, and that’s enough.

ADHD can make transitions tough — the jump from school structure to home freedom is huge. But co-regulation reminds us: calm isn’t taught through words; it’s felt through connection.

Together, you can find your rhythm again.

School’s out.
Shoes fly.
Tears fall.
And you’re left wondering: “What just happened?”

For children with ADHD, after-school meltdowns aren’t misbehaviour; they’re the nervous system saying, “I’m done.”

The good news?
You can calm the chaos together. 💫

This week's blog explains how co-regulation can help you go from chaos to calm and connection.

October is 𝗔𝗗𝗛𝗗 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵, and for many families, the hardest time of day isn’t school itself — it’s after school.

That moment when shoes are flung, words get sharp, and emotions boil over… it’s not naughtiness; it’s nervous system overload.

Our children with ADHD work so hard to hold it together all day. By home time, they’re running on fumes. That’s where co-regulation steps in — your calm presence helping their storm settle.

If after-school hours feel like a battle, you’re not alone.
Find out more about how co-regulation can help you bring peace back to your afternoons.

𝗔𝗗𝗛𝗗 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 — 𝗖𝗼-𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗼𝘀

It’s ADHD Awareness Month, and I want to share something that so many parents tell me quietly:
“𝘉𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘭, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘴 𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵.”

Tears, shouting, slammed doors… then guilt, exhaustion, and sometimes silence.

But here’s the truth: After-school meltdowns aren’t bad behaviour.
They’re what happens when your child finally feels safe enough to let the feelings out.
Your child has held it together all day in a world that often feels too loud, too bright, too demanding. And when they see you, their safe person, their nervous system finally lets go.

That’s where 𝗰𝗼-𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 comes in.
It’s not about fixing or forcing calm. It’s about 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗺; helping your child’s storm find its anchor.

This ADHD Awareness Month, I’ve written a new blog all about this: how co-regulation can transform after-school chaos into connection, and how my After-School Meltdown Toolkit can help.

Together, we can turn awareness into understanding and understanding into peace. 💛

As someone who walks with neurodivergent families every day, I feel the weight of what it means to live with ADHD, not just in moments of creativity or hyperfocus, but in the tricky, exhausting, everyday moments when logic and calm dissolve, and overwhelm rushes in. One of those moments? After schoo...

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝘂𝗽.
But so many parents I meet are trying to — day after day — with nothing left inside.

They’re running on broken sleep, constant worry, and the desperate hope that their child will finally have a good day at school. They’re juggling meltdowns, meetings, and mountains of guilt. They’re smiling when they want to cry. They’re holding it all together for everyone else… while quietly falling apart inside.

And here’s the truth:
You shouldn’t have to break in order to be seen.
You shouldn’t have to prove your love through exhaustion.
You deserve rest, too.

Your mental health matters every bit as much as your child’s.
Because when you are calm, your child’s world feels safe. When you are supported, they learn that support is safe too.

This 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘆 (10th October), I want every parent to hear this:
You are not weak for needing rest.
You are not selfish for needing space.
You are human and you are enough.

So today, make a conscious choice to pause.
Step outside. Breathe in the crisp autumn air. Feel your feet on the ground and give yourself permission, even for five minutes, to just be. You deserve that moment.

Because every time you refill your cup, you’re not taking away from your family, you’re giving them the calmest, kindest version of you.

October carries a quiet invitation. As the leaves fall and the air cools, nature gently reminds us to slow down, to release, and to rest. And this year, as World Mental Health Day approaches on the 10th of October, it offers a powerful reminder that caring for your own emotional wellbeing isn’t a ...
