• Our approach

  Liza Kokkoris uses evidence-based treatment tailored to each child's specific concerns, working closely with clients to make effective change. The approach includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Integrated CBT (MiCBT), Motivational Interviewing, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Schema Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. A key feature of her work with children is involving parents, caregivers, teachers and other health professionals in a multi-systemic approach to achieve the best possible outcomes. This collaborative framework recognises that meaningful progress often depends on consistent support across the child's different environments.
