Having watched this and also provided it to my child’s school, I highly recommend it ! Tracy Elizabeth Chadwick is fantastic and delivers this in such a relatable way.
Managing Demand Avoidance Training and Toolkit
Welcome
Welcome to the Child Therapy Service CIC, a not-for-profit organisation, based in Sussex.
My name is Tracy and I am a specialist teacher of children with social, emotional, and mental health difficulties. And more importantly, I’m a proud mum of a neurodivergent young person.
I created this service when my son began to struggle with his mental health – and we received nothing but waiting lists and closed doors. The common response I received from professionals was ‘anxiety is part of this neurodevelopmental condition‘.
Specialist mental health professionals were unable to help our family – because the only approach they could offer was talk-based therapy. Don’t get me wrong – talk-based therapy is brilliant for many people. However, what happens when a child doesn’t want to or can’t talk about their emotional overwhelm? What happens when their anger is so great, that services refuse to see them?
So, I did what any mother would do – I found a way to help my child. Over the past 3 years, I have trained in every emotional health modality available, creating my own unique approach to support people looking for an alternative to talk-based therapy.
If you are a parent, carer, or professional and looking for an effective approach to support an emotionally dysregulated child – you are in the right place! Here you will find access to resources, training, and support programmes – all focused on emotional health.
