Connecting hearts and minds — I help parents raise emotionally secure, confident kids and teenagers.

Welcome to the Hand to Heart Project

HAND TO HEART REFLECTS THE DEEP AND LASTING ATTACHMENT BONDS THAT DEVELOP WHEN A CHILD IS HELD WITH CARE AND SAFETY BY A LOVING CAREGIVER.

I’m a clinical psychologist and paediatric neuropsychologist with over 25 years of experience supporting children, teenagers and their parents. In this time, advances in neuroscience have revolutionised our understanding of how children’s and teenager’s brains grow and develop - and what truly helps them thrive.

The Hand to Heart Project is my way of sharing this profound knowledge, to empower parents and strengthen their confidence as they guide their child and teen’s development.

The Growing Mind Series

Cut through the huge amount of parenting “advice” available – the Growing Mind Series of online courses are based on scientific evidence and developed by Clinical Psychologist and Paediatric Neuropsychologist Megan Fowler.

Hi, I’m Megan Fowler

MA(Hons), PG DipClinPsych.
Member of NZPsS, ICP, ASSBI, INS, APA.

As a registered Clinical Psychologist and Paediatric Neuropsychologist with over 25 years of experience working with families, I am a specialist in how children’s and teenager’s brains develop and function and how this affects their learning, behaviour and emotional development. Being a parent can be challenging, and I believe that being a mother has been the greatest influence on my role as a child psychologist, and ignited my passion to understand the multitude of influences, on children’s and teenagers'‘s neurodevelopment, and wellbeing.

I envisage that the Hand to Heart Project and Growing Mind Series courses will contribute to more insightful and positive parenting practices, that ensure our children and teenagers are raised to feel safe, connected, loved and worthwhile.
