Susana Norma Esquivel

limited availability, after school hours - for Therapeutic Life Story Work I offer home visits 

Private child psychotherapist with more than 17 years working with children from the age of 4 up to young adults.

Sessions can be delivered at school (if in Enfield) at home when working together with parents or online.  

Sessions are weekly on the same day and time to offer consistency, lasting between 30-45 mins depending on the attention spam. 

I have also trained and accredited with the Richard Rose training program for Therapeutic Life Story work - session from £100 family therapy 

As a parent or carer, it can be difficult to know how best to help when your child is struggling. You may have noticed changes in their emotions, behaviour, relationships or confidence, or perhaps your child has experienced something they are finding hard to understand or express. Seeking support is a positive step, and you do not need to have all the answers before getting in touch.

I am a BACP-accredited child psychotherapist working with children and young people aged 5–17. I provide a warm, safe and confidential space where your child can explore their feelings and experiences at a pace that feels right for them. I offer individual, family and play-based therapy in mainstream schools and online.

Children do not always communicate through words. Depending on their age and needs, sessions may include play, creativity and conversation. These can help your child express feelings that may be confusing, overwhelming or difficult to explain. My approach is child-centred, compassionate and respectful of every child’s personality, development, culture, identity and circumstances.

At the beginning, we will discuss your concerns, what your child may need and what you hope therapy will offer. I will explain how the sessions work, answer your questions and talk clearly about confidentiality, including when information may need to be shared to keep your child or someone else safe.

Your child’s comfort and willingness to take part are very important. I aim to build a trusting, non-judgemental relationship in which they feel genuinely heard and accepted. Where appropriate, and while respecting your child’s privacy, I will work collaboratively with you and others involved in their care so that your child feels supported both within and beyond therapy.

First session is an opportunity to gather information, to make an assessment, to establish general goals for therapy and for the parents, carers and child to ask any questions they might have.
