About Calm Little Minds & Dina Dimitriou

Hi, I’m Dina Dimitriou, a psychologist, educator, author, and mom.

From Private Practice to Proactive Well-Being

For the past 15 years in private practice, I’ve supported hundreds of children, families, and schools through after-school meltdowns, bedtime worries, and overwhelming big emotions. Over those years, I noticed a clear, recurring pattern: so many of the emotional and mental health challenges children face could be prevented if they learned core social-emotional skills early on.

Driven to move away from reactive support and make a lasting, proactive difference in the wider community, I founded Calm Little Minds.

Evidence-Based SEL & Emotional Regulation Tools

With clinical experience, academic training and research at the University of Cambridge, and insights from authoring Are You Parenting the Adult of the Future?, my mission is simple: make proactive emotional support clear, practical, and accessible for everyone.

  • For Parents: Practical, psychologist-designed strategies to nurture emotional intelligence, ease anxiety, and build lasting resilience at home.
  • For Educators: Structured, classroom-ready Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) resources that make daily emotional regulation simple to teach.

Calm Little Minds provides expert-backed tools designed with warmth, creativity, and joy by helping children build the emotional awareness and coping skills they need to thrive.
