Helping teenagers and young adults to stop bedwetting and reclaim their confidence.
Are you still wishing, waiting, hoping for your bedwetting to go away?
Do you long to feel confident and happy on sleepovers?
Is your bedwetting problem making you feel exhausted and miserable?
Hey there, I'm Alicia,
I help teenagers and young adults solve bedwetting problems more easily using the latest behaviour change psychology. If you're still dealing with bedwetting, I want you to know you're not alone. Millions of teenagers worldwide face this issue, even if they don't talk about it. I've been helping children and young people overcome bedwetting for nearly 20 years from my clinic in London, and during that time, I've learned what works and what doesn't.
I'm the author of the well-known 'Stop Bedwetting in 7 Days,' book that’s recommended by NHS clinics in the UK and beyond. I'm passionate about helping teenagers in particular, because I understand that this problem isn’t just about a pile of wet sheets. A bedwetting problem has a huge impact on your life and can mean the difference between success and failure for you.
I've created a new online programme called 'MyDryBed'™ addressing both the emotional and behavioural aspects of this habit using psychological techniques.
It’s also possible to work directly with me. I offer a 30-day Breakthrough Programme and also a 3-month coaching package that offers support for both parent and teenager.
With my guidance, it is possible to regain confidence and control.

Bedwetting is a problem for many teenagers
It’s said that around 2% of all teenagers struggle with an ongoing bedwetting problem - that would mean about 250,000 here in the UK and a million teens in the US.
But as any health professional working in this field will tell you, the true number is very likely to be far higher, This is a secret, hidden problem that no-one likes to talk about and solutions can be hard to find.
Very often this problem starts in childhood and despite efforts to solve it with the use of bedwetting alarms and medications, for all too many, the problem simply persists.
Once the teenage years start, the help on offer seems to vanish. The advice to simply ‘wait and you’ll grow out of it’ starts to wear a bit thin – as that ‘growing out of it’ day never seems to come.
Anyone who struggles with a bedwetting problem will be experiencing disturbed sleep, anxiety and embarrassment – as well as worries about spending nights away from home with friends, or at summer camps, university and college.
The British Medical Journal reports that common strategies usually recommended for bedwetting children, become less effective for older children and teenagers. As time goes by, the problem is less likely to cease spontaneously and it becomes clear that some kind of further intervention is required.
Alicia is here to help you.

Bespoke Service
-
This is a tailor-made service that will accommodate all your needs and so, I can only work like this with a few families each year.
We’ll work closely together for a minimum of three months and I can accommodate foreign travel, consultations at home, school visits as well as an out-of-hours and weekend service.
I know how difficult it can be to solve a bedwetting problem and so a ‘hands-on’ approach from a professional may be just what you need. We’ll get to know each other well during our time together and so it’s likely I’ll become more of a family therapist to you all, solving other problems along the way.
As well as tackling the bedwetting problem, you’ll have the benefit of my experience and expert advice across the board - including medical and educational. I can arrange appointments for blood tests, nutrition/dietary advice, physiotherapy, educational, dyslexia and ADHD support. I have a very good contact list and will give you the benefit of my extensive knowledge, in order to solve all your problems.
We’ll have an initial interview to discuss how this could work for you and to see if we’re a good fit for each other. Please email me if you are interested in this service HERE.

What is the My Dry Bed programme?
The MyDryBed™ online programme works on three levels:
-
Learn about the practical steps and healthy changes I most recommend, for the best possible chance of success.
There’s information about the different types of enuresis, when to seek medical advice, which food and drinks to avoid, how to keep a check on your toilet habits and get a better night’s sleep too.
You’ll get a Food Diary, Toilet Guide and Journal to help you stay on track, as well as several guided meditations to help you into the correct sleep cycle.
-
Bedwetting problems create emotional challenges too and anxiety loves any situation that causes potential for embarrassment, failure, humiliation and shame. So it’s only natural that anyone with a bedwetting problem will start to feel apprehensive and it’s this that affects the nervous system and loss of muscle control.
You’ll learn how to solve this and also gain a better understanding of how your mind really works.
-
Anything that you do over and over again, becomes a habit - the behaviour pattern gets downloaded and imprinted on your subconscious mind. So it makes sense to use strategies that are designed to make changes in this part of your mind.
My methods include the latest psychological techniques - exactly the same kind of tools that top athletes and sports people use to help them become winners.
The guided meditations and hypnosis downloads in this section will also help to calm your mind and retrain your sleeping habits.
