Families come to Origami Wings for many reasons. If something below sounds familiar, please know you are not alone, and support can help.
Difficulties we often help with
- Anxiety and worry — including school-related fears, separation anxiety and difficulty sleeping.
- Anger and big behaviour — outbursts, aggression or meltdowns that feel hard to manage at home or school.
- Low mood and withdrawal — sadness, loss of interest, or a child who has become quiet and shut down.
- The impact of trauma — the effects of frightening or overwhelming experiences.
- Loss and bereavement — grief following the death of someone loved, or other significant losses.
- Family change — separation, divorce, fostering, adoption or special guardianship.
- Attachment difficulties — struggles with trust, closeness and feeling safe.
- Friendship and social difficulties — including bullying and isolation.
How therapy can help
Children do not always have the words for what they feel. Through play, creativity and trusted relationships, therapy gives feelings a safe outlet and helps children build the tools to cope. We work with the adults around a child too, because lasting change grows from connection.
