Personalised learning, emotional support and meaningful connection, wherever you feel most comfortable.

At Walk With Hazel, I believe everyone deserves access to education, encouragement and emotional well-being, regardless of their circumstances.

Whether you're experiencing anxiety, living with a health condition, have limited mobility or simply prefer the comfort of your own home, my online sessions offer a flexible and supportive alternative to meeting face-to-face.

A Different Way to Connect

I've always valued face-to-face interaction, particularly when helping children and young people develop social skills, confidence and relationships.

However, after experiencing my own mobility difficulties following a fractured fibula, I began delivering some of my sessions online.

It challenged my thinking!

I discovered that meaningful relationships, learning, laughter and personal development can still happen through a screen.

I haven't changed my belief in the importance of face-to-face connection. I've simply broadened my understanding of how connection can happen.

Online Tutoring & Educational Support

My online tutoring sessions are designed around the individual, rather than expecting everyone to learn in the same way.

I can offer support with:

English and Maths, including Functional Skills

Home education and alternative learning

Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA)

Confidence, motivation and engagement with learning

Study skills, organisation and independence

Social, emotional and personal development

With over 17 years of experience supporting children and young people, including those with additional needs and difficulties accessing mainstream education, I understand that learning isn't always about textbooks and worksheets.

Sometimes building confidence, curiosity and a positive relationship with learning is the most important place to start.

Online Counselling & Emotional Well-being

Sometimes talking feels easier from a familiar environment.

My online counselling sessions provide a supportive, non-judgemental space to explore thoughts, feelings and challenges at your own pace.

I can support children, young people and adults experiencing:

Anxiety, stress and emotional overwhelm

Low confidence and self-esteem

Difficulties with relationships and communication

Life changes, uncertainty and personal challenges

Emotional regulation and understanding feelings

Isolation and difficulties accessing support outside the home

Sessions are person-centred, using a combination of counselling approaches, practical strategies and emotional well-being activities suited to your individual needs.

How Do Online Sessions Work?

A relaxed, flexible approach, without unnecessary pressure.

Sessions take place through a private online video meeting, allowing us to work together from a suitable, comfortable space.

For younger learners, I use interactive activities, discussions, shared resources and creative approaches to make learning engaging.

Sessions can be adapted to individual needs, including shorter appointments, movement breaks and gradual introductions for those who find meeting someone new challenging.

For counselling, we'll discuss how to create a private, comfortable setting where you can speak freely.

All you need is a suitable device, an internet connection and a space where you feel comfortable.

Who Can Benefit?

Online sessions may be particularly helpful for:

Home-educated children and young people

Those experiencing school avoidance or anxiety

Neurodivergent learners

People living with disabilities, chronic illness or mobility difficulties

Individuals experiencing isolation

Families living further afield

Anyone who finds online support more accessible or convenient

Online sessions aren't necessarily right for everyone, and that's okay, we can walk and talk, sit and talk in cafe or simple be face to face wherever you are comfortable.

Learning, confidence and emotional well-being shouldn't be limited by where you live or your ability to leave home.
