I am a fully registered Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytical Psychotherapist. I can work with young people from birth up to the age of 25.
I work with both the conscious and unconscious aspects of the mind and can help young people with psychological or behaviour problems that are deep seated or that don't seem to make sense.
Perhaps your child does or thinks things that are self-defeating or self-destructive. Perhaps they find it hard to love or value themselves even though they are shown they are loved and valued. Perhaps they are inexplicably scared or angry with you or themselves, but feel out of reach.
Contact me for help.
I work psychoanalytically which means I work with not only what is on the surface but also what is hidden from sight deep in the unconscious. These parts of the self, which are normally beyond reach, nevertheless impact our behaviour and feelings about ourselves and the world. I can help your child to feel less anxious, angry or depressed and more at ease.
I work with calmness and compassion to help your child or young person feel safe. The work is always at the child's pace, but over time and as trust develops, child psychotherapy can lead to real and lasting change. I can help your child grow and develop in a healthy way and feel more comfortable in their own skin and happy about who they are.
