A lot of my clients are having wonderful results with St.John's Wort. The 
only real problem with it is it does cause sensitivity to sunlight in some 
people. It's more of a mood balancer, unlike Valeran Root, which IS a 
depressant and sometimes caused reactions in people prone to depression.

As I've said before, citrus oils tend to calm kids. Peppermint is also a mood 
enhancer. You might also get with a more holistic practitioner and see if 
perhaps the problems are aggravated or even caused by something in her diet.

Just my two cents worth.
