Helping adults and children nurture mental health with emotional strategies, mindfulness and self-care.
“Are you or your child struggling to cope with your big emotions ? Are you feeling stressed , overwhelmed and don’t know where to turn for support ?
Is this now negatively impacting on your day to day life – maybe affecting your relationships , how you respond to situations , through anxiety or sleep problems ? Unfortunately in our busy stressful lives we now find ourselves living in you are not alone and I would love to support you.
I am passionate about supporting children and adults’ wellbeing where I work 1-1 with children , adults or families creating a safe space to share what’s going on with you and / or your child. We then work together to help you to recognise and understand how this affecting your emotions, and then look at a range of personal strategies to help you to respond in a healthier way, this includes mindfulness techniques and simple breathwork .
If I were to work with your child 1-1, I would also work with their parents , where we would create a team around the child to support them to feel more emotionally happy, safe and secure. I work closely with parents to help them to step back from their child’s behaviour , to try to identify what the behaviour is communicating . I then support the parents with a range of positive parenting strategies to respond to their child in a more effective and supportive way.
I also offer candlelit Wellbeing evenings in Berkhamsted , creating a protected space for adults to pause, breathe and have time and space to come out of their busy minds and connect with their inner soul. These evenings include an introduction to a range of mindfulness tools , breathwork meditations , self-reflection processes and time to connect with like minded people.
My passion for offering all that I do was inspired from working in primary education for over 30 years . After my final 9 years as a Primary school Head teacher which included the pandemic , I saw the increasing need for supporting children’s and adults’ early mental health. As a headteacher I created a whole school approach to mental health , which included teaching mindfulness in schools . In 2021, I decided to fully dedicate my career in this field and set up my business Unlocking Children’s Potential , where my mission is to support children and adults to live happier and more fulfilling lives.”

Testimonials
Suzanne demonstrates a unique ability to connect with children on a personal level. Through tailored coaching sessions my daughter not only developed practical strategies to help manage anxious thoughts but also gained a greater sense of self assurance and resilience. Suzanne’s approach is professional yet compassionate, creating a safe and supportive environment that allowed my daughter to feel comfortable to express herself. Thank you Suzanne.
We can’t recommend Suzanne highly enough. When everything we’d tried just wasn’t enough, I started looking for help. Suzanne came to the rescue. Like a calming breath of fresh air, she helped settle our feuding family dynamic and very quickly began to unpick what was really going on. With genuinely helpful tips and strategies that we’ve all been able to learn from and adopt, we haven’t looked back since.
Suzanne bonded very quickly with our son and the weekly sessions have had an immense impact on his ability to regulate his emotions. Not only has Suzanne supported our son, but she has also been an amazing source of guidance for the whole family and equipped us with parenting ‘tools’.
In just a few weeks we have seen such an improvement in our daughter’s self-confidence and sleep anxiety. Not only has Suzanne provided a safe and supportive space for her to talk and share her worries, she has taught her practical strategies to recognise and manage her emotions that she uses now and can rely on in the future.
Her overall happiness and confidence has improved and she really looks forward to the sessions every week.
