"Gemma worked relentlessly to build my daughter's self-esteem and emotional resilience"

Updated: Apr 26, 2024

Let me start by saying if your child is given the opportunity to work with Gemma, grab it with both hands.


Gemma worked with my daughter (aged six) for a period of six weeks. She was displaying some performance related anxiety behaviours, which were impacting her learning and most importantly her happiness in the classroom.


As a parent, it hurt that my seemingly confident daughter would freeze as soon as the teacher asked a question on the carpet.


I asked Gemma for her help. Gemma knew immediately what needed to happen. She completed a child-friendly assessment. Gemma followed her lead and in doing so, built her trust, uncovering the reason behind the freezing behaviour - fear of getting something wrong! The next five sessions, Gemma worked relentlessly to build her self-esteem and emotional resilience.


Gemma has a toolbox of tricks enabling her to reach the goals she set. She shares everything with the parent so you feel that you can do your part at home, too. Within weeks, her school told us that she was a changed child - confident and answering questions. This we owe to Gemma.


I would recommend Gemma to any family needing emotional or behavioural support. We are beyond grateful to have used her prodessional services.
