Why Busy Brains?

Families come to me because they want support that feels human and realistic—something that goes beyond generic tips and actually fits their child.

I blend child psychology, play-based therapy and behavioural science to help children make sense of their emotions, behaviour and world. Nothing "perfect parent". Nothing clinical or intimidating. Just honest, creative support that works in everyday life.

• Child Psychology
• Play Therapy

About me

Hello! I'm Megan, and my work is driven by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive in an environment where they feel seen, supported, and empowered. I am constantly inspired by the resilience and unique strengths that children naturally possess, and I view each child as an individual with their own path to growth.

I bring a wealth of professional training and expertise to my practice:

  • Diploma in Child Psychology – providing a strong foundation in understanding emotional, social, and cognitive development in children.

  • Diploma in Play Therapy – enabling therapeutic engagement through structured, evidence-based play techniques.

  • Diploma in Developmental Learning Disabilities and Behavioural Challenges in Children and Adolescents – specializing in assessment and intervention for children with complex learning and behavioural needs.

  • Advanced Training in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for Autism – equipping me with rigorous, research-backed strategies to support children with neurodevelopmental differences.

  • Specialized Training in Neuroscience and Child Development – enhancing my understanding of how the brain develops and influences behaviour and learning.

    - Advanced Diploma in Developmental, Learning & Behavioural Disorders in Children & Adolescents 

I specialise in working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), providing tailored strategies to meet their unique developmental and behavioural needs. I also work with neurotypical children, helping them build emotional regulation, social skills, and confidence.

These qualifications allow me to deliver comprehensive, evidence-based interventions tailored to each child's unique needs, supporting growth across emotional, social, cognitive, and behavioural domains.

My approach is both structured and empathetic. I use play as a therapeutic tool to build trust, enhance social skills, strengthen emotional regulation, and address behavioural challenges. I also work closely with families to ensure strategies are practical, sustainable, and effective in everyday life.

As a Child Behaviour and Development Specialist, my work extends beyond traditional therapy:

  • I partner with parents, providing coaching and guidance to create calm, supportive home environments.

  • I collaborate with schools, offering behavioural consultation, staff training, and strategies to enhance learning and social success.

  • I develop personalized, holistic plans that support the whole child — mind, body, and spirit — recognizing that each child's growth is unique.

My goal is to create a nurturing space where children feel safe to explore, learn, and grow, while parents and educators feel empowered and supported. Every child deserves to be heard, understood, and given the tools to succeed — and I am here to guide them and their families every step of the way.
