Hello, I’m an accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (UKCP/ MBACP) with a specialism of working with children, young people and adults. I have training in EMDR and have many years experience working with children and families within settings, such as hospices, charities, clinical settings, LAC teams and in the community. I am a humanistic, ‘integrative’ practitioner, so I use different methods to develop a warm, friendly relationship based on individual needs, respect and seeing the person as a whole – in other words - ‘I’m Ok – You’re Ok’.
Please note I am not accepting new child referrals presently
I have specialist experience of working with loss, separation pre-bereavement and bereavement; stress; anxiety; attachment; low mood; self-esteem; grief; anger; domestic abuse; care experienced; adoption; neurodiversity; gender; sexuality and relationships. I have an interest in art therapy; dreams, imagery, stories and object relations theory.
Whatever the issue yourself or your child are facing, my hope is that you will allow me to walk alongside with compassion, empathy and care as we make sense of a difficult situation or life event. Through counselling and creative approaches, we'll build a safe, therapeutic relationship, so you feel heard and valued and reach new understandings and meaning.
