The way you talk about yourself teaches your child how to talk about themselves. Avoid negative self-talk like “I’m so silly!” Instead: Model self-compassion: “I’m learning—it’s okay.” Reframe mistakes: “I’ll remember next time.” Encourage positive language: “You’re improving!”

ARFID is an eating disorder that causes food avoidance/restriction, often seen in early years and in children with autism. Educational psychologists frequently support families, schools, and professionals to address its impact. Early intervention is key. #ARFID #EducationalPsychology

Booking blocks of supervision sessions offers consistency, strengthens relationships, saves time, and can be cost-effective. It supports long-term goal setting and signals commitment to professional growth. A structured approach benefits both the psychologist and their clients.

Private educational psychologists (EPs) must book regular supervision to meet HCPC standards, maintain competency, and safeguard clients. We recommend monthly or at least half-termly sessions, booked in advance. Costs? Claim part back via your tax return as a business expense! #Supervision #EP
