About this client/child: George (6) is a lively, energetic child who thrives outdoors, whether kicking a football in the garden or exploring the park. He also enjoys quieter activities like arts and crafts and puzzles. George has ADHD and sometimes struggles with emotional regulation, particularly in social settings where routines and boundaries can be unpredictable. At home, he can experience sudden emotional outbursts, occasionally becoming frustrated or angry. Transitions, such as moving from brushing his teeth to getting dressed, can also be challenging. George has two older siblings (16 and 13) who also have ADHD but are independent and managing well. While they may join in some activities, this role will primarily focus on supporting George and his family by creating a more structured daily routine, reinforcing boundaries, and promoting positive behaviour strategies.
