At Bulby Psychology, we provide compassionate, expert Clinical Psychology support to children, young people, parents and families whose lives have been shaped by trauma and adversity.

Our specialism is developmental trauma. When children go through painful or frightening experiences early in life, it can shape how they grow, how they trust, handle big feelings, behave, and how they see themselves and other people. Because this kind of trauma happens in relationships, it is healed through relationships too. That belief sits at the heart of everything we do.

We have deep expertise in supporting children who are adopted, fostered or care-experienced, and the families who love and care for them. But we know that developmental trauma doesn't only belong to the care system.

We also support children and families affected by:

• Early and birth trauma, including difficult perinatal and postnatal experiences, for both child and parent.

• Trauma that can accompany neurodivergence and learning disability. When a child's experience of the world, and the world's response to them, has been repeatedly distressing or misunderstood.

• Bullying and painful peer experiences. When the hurt has happened in friendships, school and social life.

• Loss, disruption and adversity within family life: for children living with birth parents as much as any other family.

What unites the children and families we work with is not a label or a care status, it's the experience of trauma that has touched their relationships, sense of safety, and their connection with the people who matter most.

That is where our expertise lies, and that is where we help.
