Psychological Therapy for Children & Teens

Worried About Your Child? Feeling Stuck and Unsure What to Do Next?

Does every school morning feel like a battle?
Is your child spending more and more time alone in their room, leaving you worried about their emotional well-being?
Perhaps their anxiety, low mood, or challenging behaviour has left you feeling helpless, unsure how to support them, or how to rebuild your relationship.

You don’t have to navigate this alone.

Specialist, Tailored Support for Your Child and Family

Every child is unique, and so is the support they need. Dr. Melita Ash takes a personalised, flexible approach—working one-on-one with your child, supporting you as a parent, involving the whole family, or often a combination of these. Together, we’ll decide on the best way forward.

Dr. Ash draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic models, including:

✔ Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)
✔ Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
✔ Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP)
✔ Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR)

How to Get Started

📅 Step 1: Initial Consultation – A 50-minute session to explore the challenges you and/or your child are facing. At the end of this session, Dr. Ash will outline a suggested personalised plan for therapeutic support, including an estimation of the number of sessions needed (this will be reviewed with you regularly).

💡 Step 2: Psychological Therapy – Sessions can be held weekly or fortnightly, either in-person at our Matlock Green clinic or online via a secure video platform.
