My Approach

I’m a trained and experienced Child and Adolescent Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with an MA in Integrated systemic Therapy. I provide 1 to 1 talking therapy for children and young people from 5 to 18 years of age. Given that my approach is integrated, I’m able to bring in aspects of a number of different modalities, understanding that children and young people communicate in different ways and therefore I ensure that I tailor the counselling I provide to meet the needs of each child or young person. For children and young people with a preference for play, art and creative methods, these will be included within my counselling space. I offer counselling for a broad range of struggles that children and young people might experience. Please contact me for further information.

About Me

I have worked therapeutically with children and young people for 19 years based in a therapeutic residential community, a school, and within children’s services. I have experience working with trauma, anxiety, relational issues, behavioural difficulties, depression, low self-esteem and low self-confidence, stress as well as other experiences and needs.

I’m passionate about giving children and young people space to find their own voice and build their autonomy, and I am a firm believer in the transformational power of a therapeutic relationship.
