PARENT CHILD MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT AT THE SOKE

Difficulties that aren’t comfortably spoken about are nevertheless commonly experienced by parents of infants and toddlers.

Frustrating behaviours that naturally occur as part of a child’s development become increasingly difficult to tolerate on an ongoing basis.

Love and loneliness co-exist, and the mix of complex emotions can be disarming.

At The Soke we offer individual as well as parent-infant group work, with the aim of supporting the nurturing bond, the child’s development and the family’s emotional and psychological wellbeing.
