Services

Marie Whiteland is passionate about supporting children with their mental health so that they can access learning and reach their full potential. She regularly works within schools and offers morning, afternoon, or full day ‘Service Level Agreements’. Marie offers therapeutic consultation to teachers and other professionals who work with children with complex needs. She also provides a supportive environment where individuals can share and discuss some of the emotional aspects of their work and the children they work with.
Therapeutic consultation allows a deeper look into a child’s behaviour, and the impact it is having on the pupil/teacher dynamic. Sessions prioritise the wellbeing of children and the development and wellbeing of adults working with them.
