Sessions for parents and staff who are already doing their best
Every session is built for the room — a school hall of parents, a staffroom, a small workshop group — with plain language and no jargon.
The Anxious Years
What’s actually going on in an anxious teenage brain, in plain language — and the small, steady things that help, long before it turns into a crisis.
Talking Sideways
For the conversations that go nowhere face-on. Practical language for staff trying to reach a teenager who has gone quiet, without pushing them further away.
Home Base
What a teenager needs the house to feel like on the hard days — and how to offer that without walking on eggshells.
The Worry Map
A simple way to name a worry, work out its size, and decide what — if anything — needs to happen next.
A short clip from a recent session
A short clip from a parent evening, so you know what to expect before you book. The full recording is available to schools on request.
One evening
Held at the school, open to all parents. Practical, plain-language, and never clinical-sounding. Time for questions at the end.
A PD session
For teaching and pastoral staff. Practical language and everyday approaches for supporting an anxious student, without overstepping into treatment.
Across several sessions
A small group of parents meeting across a few sessions, working through one thing at a time rather than trying to cover everything at once.

“I never come in with a lecture. I come in with what I’ve actually seen work, and time for the questions people are too embarrassed to ask.”
Dr Ana Moreno
“Parents don’t need another expert telling them what they’re doing wrong. They need someone who’s sat with enough worried teenagers to know what actually helps.”
Dr Ana Moreno
