I am a HCPC ( Health and Care Professions Council) and BAAT (British Association of Art Therapists) registered Art Psychotherapist who specialises in working with children and young people. I provide a safe, confidential space for children to explore their inner world through art making and creativity. Children often struggle to express themselves through words. Art can act as a medium through which a child communicates their thoughts and feelings in a more natural, less direct way. These feelings and experiences can then be thought about, talked about and processed safely.
My approach is psychodynamic and I aim to build a trusting therapeutic relationship with the children that I work with so that they are able to express themselves freely. The sessions are child-led so that the children can work on the issues that are important to them. I offer regular reviews with parents and care givers.
I am experienced in working with children and young people within schools and the charity sector. I work with children with diagnosis of ASD, ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, low self esteem and trauma. And with children who have experienced abuse, bereavement, domestic violence and parental separation. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
