My Approach

My 'integrative' approach means I may draw on using the arts to help young people express themselves along with other various methods depending upon the needs of my client. The main focus is always building a relationship based on safety and trust, from there I may use CBT/psychodynamic/trauma-informed techniques to offer tailored support. I am also keen to support and champion neurodivergence.

I am passionate about helping children to feel happy and safe, while assisting families to better understand one another.
