Child Counselling in Bristol
Are you a parent or carer looking for support for the child in your care?
Sandplay is a gentle and surprisingly powerful invitation to self-discovery, as well as a safe and contained way to work through difficult past experiences, including grief and trauma. I am experienced in working with foster and adoptive families and care-experienced children and young people, with a DDP (Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy) informed approach

I specialise in tailored therapy for children and young people, with services also available for adults.
I use a variety of modalities depending on each individual client's needs. I'm particularly attuned to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic (psychoanalytic) Therapy and Creative Therapy using meditation, voice, breath, bodywork, therapy toys and drawing i.e. paintings.

Creating a safe and secure environment is paramount, enabling children the freedom to explore at their own pace is so important.
I have over 20 years of experience in working with vulnerable children and their families. I recognise the importance of teamwork and value the vital role in which the caregiver plays. I hope that through this intervention we can come together in seeing these children grow and develop.

In practice for 13 years, I offer specialist trauma informed support to adults, adolescents and children.
My therapeutic approach is very much tailored to suit the needs of the individual. As an integrative therapist my approach combines creative CBT, mindfulness, somatic inquiry, breath work and art/play therapy. I have a gorgeous cavalier spaniel who is a therapy dog in training. I offer a hybrid of online and face to face sessions.

I offer support for the difficult, deeper feelings of children, teenagers, young adults, parents & infants and expectant parents.
I am led by how someone wants to work. This might be through talking, art therapy or play therapy (puppets, clay, paint, movement, music, sand play). (I have trainnings in both counselling and also child and adolescent psychotherapy.) For others it's useful to notice feelings in the body that may help us understand and shift what gets lodged in us.

I imagine that you or your child are struggling with something and that you are wondering if therapeutic support could be helpful.
I help children and young people by offering a creative, playful space where they can safely explore thoughts and feelings without judgment. I use creativity as another form of self-expression, as sometimes words aren’t enough to represent what we feel or have been through. Play, art, and movement can help make sense of those experiences in manageable ways.

I specialise though in working with children & young people, survivors of trauma and the LGBTQIA+ community.
I work to empower my clients in a safe, accessible and inclusive space. I also have a lived and professional awareness of neurodiversity and queerness which I’m mindful of and sensitive to in the therapy room. Overall it’s my aim to work with you to develop your inner resources, in response to the challenges of the outside world.

Do you or your child need to feel seen, heard and understood?
I bring a holistic view, taking all of you into account - your culture, religion, race, genetics, trans-generational factors, neuro-diversity, environment, seasonal effects etc. Using a Psychodynamic framework, Integrative Art Psychotherapy allows the unconscious to communicate through other mediums as well or instead of talking with free assosiation.

I have two years of experience in counselling children, young people and adults.
Do you need some support? Do you want to collaborate with a therapist, rather than feeling that they're the expert? I’m currently taking on clients from all backgrounds, and I specialise in working with queer and trans youth and adults. I am neurodiversity affirming, and have experience working with autistic and ADHD clients with low to medium support needs. Whatever your identity or background, I will tailor my therapeutic approach to suit you and your needs at this time.

I work with children, young people and their families, often when things are feeling difficult or overwhelming.
Many of us will have experiences of feeling stuck, lost or unsure of where to go next. I can work alongside you and your family to offer support when you’re finding it hard to identify a way forward. I do this through providing a safe, warm and non-judgemental therapeutic space and collaboratively identifying which psychological approach may be most helpful.

I offer an initial 30 minute session, free of charge, as it's important that you or your child feel comfortable with what I am offering.
At times we all experience symptoms of anxiety, stress, depression, low self esteem/confidence, anger or have family or relationship issues which make us feel alone and scared. Perhaps you question if you have ADHD or neurodiversity?. We can feel trapped by these feelings and unable to move forward with life. Talking to an experienced therapist can help you to understand and alleviate these feelings. You are not alone with this, it is more common than you think to struggle with thinking and feelings. Why not book an initial session, without obligation, to see if counselling would work for you?
