Every child, whether toddler or at school age, will encounter numerous challenges during his or her development. The majority of such challenges can be solved readily with the help of parents, teachers or the pediatrician. However, some emotional distress may have a lasting effect on the child and the family, e.g., objectively difficult life situations (divorce, loss of a loved one, illnesses, school issues), uncontrollable, overpowering emotions (fears, outbursts of anger, impulsive behavior), or problematic relationships with peers or siblings. At such levels of psychological strain, it can be helpful to consult a specialist in order to seek individual solutions for the child and the family.  The most important principles of my professional approach are the establishment of a heedful, trusting relationship with the child, as well as my genuine interest in the perspective of the child and the family. The aim of my work is to initiate a joint process that should enable parents and children to better understand themselves and their counterparts, to gain new experiences and to strengthen existing resources. Depending on a child’s needs and age, my work may include more play oriented or talking therapeutic elements. In addition, regular interaction (discussions) with parents and the ‘reference system’ of other involved adults will also form part of the therapeutic procedure.
