Child & Adolescent Psychology
Supporting Young People to Feel More Confident, Understood & Connected
At Calma Psychology, we provide compassionate, evidence-based psychological support for children and adolescents experiencing challenges with school, confidence, emotions, anxiety and neurodivergence.
Our psychologists provide a safe and supportive environment where young people can better understand themselves, develop practical coping skills and build confidence.

Supporting Your Child Starts With Understanding Their Needs
When your child is struggling, it can be difficult to know when to encourage, when to step back and how best to respond.
We provide parents with practical psychological guidance to better understand their child's needs and support positive changes at home and at school.
Parent support may include:
Understanding your child's emotional and behavioural needs
Strategies for school refusal
Supporting emotional regulation
Understanding Autism and ADHD
Building confidence and independence
Strengthening communication and family relationships
Working collaboratively with schools
Parent consultations can be provided alongside your child's individual therapy when appropriate.
