For schools, doctors and parents

When a child's behaviour or adjustment changes, adults need a clear next step.

Ligpunt offers professional assessment and support for children experiencing emotional, behavioural or adjustment challenges, working with parents, doctors, preschools and schools to understand the child's experience and plan practical support.

Support begins by understanding what the child may be communicating through behaviour, emotion or adjustment.

Three entry points, one child-centred conversation.

Parents

When home life shows that something has shifted.

Parents are actively involved and supported with practical strategies that can be used in daily family life.

Doctors and pediatricians

When emotional or behavioural support may be indicated.

Medical referrers can contact Ligpunt when a child's functioning, mood, anxiety, adjustment or behaviour needs professional support.

Schools and early-childhood settings

When learning, behaviour or classroom adjustment needs context.

Teachers, preschools and early-development centres can refer when a child's behaviour or functioning raises concern.

When to seek support or refer.

A child may benefit from support when adults notice changes that are difficult to explain, contain or understand in isolation.

01

Changes in behaviour or emotions.

02

Anxiety, withdrawal or aggression.

03

School or learning problems developing.

04

Difficulty adjusting after divorce, relocation or loss.

05

Trauma or difficult experiences.

06

Unexplained changes in behaviour or functioning.

The child is taken seriously, and the adults are brought into the support process.

Ligpunt works from a child-centred and family-focused approach. Each child's experience is taken seriously, parents are actively supported, and practical strategies are shaped for real home, school and care settings.

Child

The child's experience, emotional safety and development remain central.

Parents

Parents are included and supported with usable strategies.

Systems

Where appropriate, schools, doctors and other role players can be part of the support picture.

Growth

The focus is long-term emotional wellbeing, development and practical change.

Professional referrals can be made directly.

Ligpunt works with doctors, pediatricians, schools, teachers, preschools and early childhood development centres. Feedback can be provided where appropriate and within the agreed professional scope.

Specialist support is available where matters are more complex or sensitive.

In more complex or sensitive situations, Ligpunt can provide forensic assessments, investigations where there are concerns about abuse, and professional reporting for further processes. These services are handled with sensitivity and strict ethical care.

Start with what the adults are noticing.

Share the concern, the child's age, where the change is showing and who is involved. Ligpunt can help identify the most appropriate next step.
