Erica Hamilton

My journey’s taken me through plenty of meaningful work, including supporting families in the community with the Family Links and the HENRY programmes. I trained with Place2Be as a Children and Young People’s Therapist, which gave me a solid foundation in child development, emotional well-being, and the power of a good listening ear. As a registered BACP member (392483), I work in accordance with their code of practice and ethical framework.

I love helping young people tackle emotional, behavioural, and mental health struggles head-on. I often team up with families, teachers, and school staff to create a support network that helps kids thrive — because no one should have to figure it all out alone.

Some of the areas I’m especially passionate about include:

• Supporting young people with ADHD

• Helping parents build stronger, healthier relationships with their children

• Giving young people practical tools to handle low self-esteem, anxiety, and social worries

• Supporting young people through relational struggles, loss, and bereavement

• Boosting self-awareness, confidence, and emotional resilience

• Guiding young people through life’s big (and small) transitions

• Unpacking intergenerational trauma and its impact

At the heart of it all, I’m here to empower children and young people to feel more confident, resilient, and hopeful — whether that’s through one-on-one sessions, family work, or collaborating with schools. Every young person deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued — and I’m committed to helping make that happen in a way that feels supportive, approachable, and yes, even a little bit fun.
