You found us for a reason
Parenting a Wild Child can feel like walking on eggshells - as though you are in a constant state of high alert.
Traditional parenting advice just doesn't seem to work and you may be feeling exhausted, confused and overwhelmed.
Because we know you want to do right by your child ... but no one told you how.
You're Not Alone
We are here to help.
Book an initial consultation if you're unsure ... let’s figure it out together.

-
challenged by meltdowns, shutdowns or school non-attendance

like they’ve tried everything and nothing works

What Families Are Saying
"Before Raising a Wild Child, we were in daily crisis. Now we feel connected, confident and less alone."
"This support changed everything. It made me understand my child - and myself - in a whole new way."
“The support our RAWC Associate offers is invaluable. The WhatsApp support in-between weekly sessions is so reassuring - even if we don't need to use it just knowing it's there offers peace of mind that help and support is available if we need it. I have never heard of any other service offering this.”
“Thank you for the training this morning, I have learned more from you than any other book or training session in the last 8 years. Not only for my future patients, but also for me and my family!”
"With her immense knowledge and experience, Suzan gives personal insight into neurodivergence and alchemises this into a compassionate and teachable philosophy with heaps of actionable strategies. It’s transformed our facilitators’ approach to groups with a huge positive impact on our girls."
"Things are really really good. Like we’ve turned a significant corner. She is back in school and it’s going well. Thank you for everything. There are a million other smaller wins, too many to mention but I wouldn’t be where we are today without you xxx"
