Symon is the founder of Contigo Child and Family, a specialist perinatal and trauma service.

She provides perinatal mental health care and trauma therapy for women, parents, and families, with a focus on supporting early relationships and breaking intergenerational patterns.

Symon is the author of My Mummy’s Inside Weather, a gentle, metaphor-based picture book that helps children make sense of changes in a parent’s mood. The book offers simple, reassuring language for children while supporting parents to talk about emotions.

She is also the developer of the New Beginnings Core Needs Framework, an attachment-informed approach that integrates ideas from Circle of Security and Schema Therapy. This framework supports parents and clinicians to understand emotional needs, patterns of coping, and pathways toward change in a way that is practical, compassionate, and accessible.
