I am a Senior Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist with over twenty years experience working in the NHS and independently. I usually work with children and young people up to the age of 25. I also offer consultations and therapeutic parenting sessions to parents and other family members who may be caring for a child. I see children and young people with a range of needs, including trauma, anxiety and low mood. I often work with clients who are neurodiverse or have a learning difficulty. I am experienced at working with clients with histories of self harm and eating disorders.
I use play and art to help children explore their feelings although older children and young people may prefer to talk. The initial goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship in which feelings can begin to be named and understood. I may introduce grounding strategies to help a child manage overwhelming feelings of panic and distress.
When your child is experiencing distress it can be a very worrying and confusing time for a parent. I aim to help you and your child begin to develop a greater understanding of the causes of distress and to begin to manage feelings and situations more positively. I am available for advice to parents throughout their child's therapy.

The child or young person usually attends the first appointment with their parent or carer. I explain that we go at a slow pace, without delving too deeply before a client feels safe with me and has acquired the coping skills to manage difficult feelings. Through thinking about what the child shows in play and art, or in words, we aim to gain an understanding of the underlying difficulties.

I use play and art to help younger children explore their feelings. Older children may prefer to talk. I provide a warm, empathic space in which a trusting therapeutic relationship can develop. We work together to think about difficulties and issues which a child may be experiencing, and seek to find alternative ways to feel about things and manage situations
