When something feels off
You can tell when something’s off with your child, even when they can’t say it.
The meltdowns that don’t fit their age, the worry that won’t let them sleep, the tears before school, the friend trouble, the child who’s suddenly withdrawn or angry. You’ve tried everything you can think of, and you’re worried — and maybe a little worried about being worried.
Seeing a child psychologist doesn’t mean something is wrong with your child or your parenting. It means giving them a skilled, gentle person to help them through something hard. We work with children and teenagers in 50-minute sessions, in person in JLT or online, in the language they understand best: for younger ones, that’s play.
Support for children & teenagers

What we help children & teens with

Children show distress in behaviour long before they have words for it. You might recognise one of these.
01

Big behaviour & emotions

Tantrums, meltdowns, anger, or anxiety that overwhelm them.

02

Worry & low mood

Fears, sadness, or a child who seems to have lost their spark.

03

School refusal & pressure

The dread, the tummy aches, the battles before drop-off.

04

Friendships & social skills

Bullying, loneliness, or struggling to connect.

05

Sleep, screens & routines

The everyday battles that wear the whole family down.

06

Teenagers — the harder years

Identity, mood, risk, and pulling away.

A gentle, practical approach

How we work

01

We meet your child where they are

Younger children work things through with play and art; older children and teens through sand, talking and creative methods — never forced, always at their pace.

02

Parents are part of the work, always

You're not sent to the waiting room and kept in the dark. We guide you on how to support your child at home, because you're the most important part of their world.

03

Skills that outlast the sessions

Your child builds ways to understand and manage their feelings — and you build confidence in helping them.

A meta-analysis found play-based therapy has a large positive effect for children — meeting kids in their own language works.

Before you get started

Common questions about child psychology

If a difficulty has lasted more than a few weeks, is getting worse, or is affecting school, friendships, sleep or family life, it’s worth a conversation. You don’t need a diagnosis or a crisis — earlier support is usually easier.
We share what you need to help your child and keep them safe, while giving them enough privacy to trust the process. We explain exactly how this works with you at the start, and it’s adapted to your child’s age.
We work with children from early years through adolescence. The approach changes with age — play and art for the youngest, sandtray and talking for older children and teens.
Yes — our team works in English, Russian, Ukrainian, Arabic and Urdu, including specialists in Arabic-speaking family work. Tell us your preference and we’ll match you.
Therapy can be in person in JLT or online; younger children usually do best in person. We direct-bill most major UAE insurers — send your provider on WhatsApp and we’ll confirm within 24 hours.
A gentle first step

Your child doesn't have to struggle through this alone — and neither do you.
