Here are some lovely success stories from families I have worked with.
-
My son loved his sessions with Jess, and she supported him through a difficult time at home. He was able to talk about his worries and use the toys to make sense of things. Play therapy helped him to talk about his feelings instead of lashing out.
-
Jess worked with my daughter a she as she struggles to regulate her emotions which resulted in big tantrums that could get out of control. She really enjoyed attending Jess’ sessions and felt comfortable with Jess. She was quiet at first but gradually started to open up. At home she started to use the techniques Jess suggested and talk to us more about how she was feeling rather than having an outburst. Her tantrums reduced and if she did tantrum she was able to calm down quicker and talk about what was happening and how she was feeling. We are very pleased with her progress and thankful for Jess’ support for our daughter and us as parents.

I don’t know what you did in sessions, but my daughter’s anxiety has disappeared and she is much more confident. Thank you so much.

My son’s anxiety has been 100% better since seeing Jess. He is happy to go to school now and if something happens, he will talk to me about his feelings. Play therapy has made a huge difference and he loved his sessions.

My daughter was referred to Jess with school-based anxiety when she started in year one. She was unable to walk into school without me or even answer her name in the register. She wouldn’t engage with anyone and rarely left the teacher’s side. This anxiety spilled into home life and my daughter would scream and hide when ever she saw her school uniform. She was having night terrors and became a shell of her former self. Jess worked with her every week and created a safe space where my daughter felt comfortable enough to be her authentic self and explore all of her big feelings without judgement. Fast forward to a few months later and my daughter is now able to dress herself independently, looks forward to school and has even been told off for chatting too much which is HUGE! I cannot thank Jess enough as this has been life changing not only for my daughter, but for our entire family and we are eternally grateful’
