A godson’s throwaway comment helped kickstart an entrepreneur's business.
Amy Smythe, from Runcorn, is the brains behind The Worry Wizard - a counselling psychotherapist programme which prides itself on helping children in Merseyside and beyond “to move from worries to well-being”. The programme uses “invisible” therapeutic techniques to help support a child’s well-being and allow them to build a positive sense of self.
As a mum of three boys: Joseph, 14, Ethan, 12, and Alfie, seven, Amy knows all too well spending too much time overthinking about her children’s welfare.
