Child Counselling in Hemel Hempstead
I have worked in mental health for over 20 years, qualifying as an integrative counsellor in 2004, and am experienced in working with children and adults for a wide range and depth of issues.
I understand that finding the right person and deciding to meet a new counsellor or therapist to begin a piece of self development work is an investment on many levels. If it helps, I am happy to arrange to talk on the telephone, video platform or through email to answer any questions you might have. We can then arrange for an initial assessment session.

Hello and Welcome, Life can indeed be difficult at times. Many are struggling with mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings can rise to the surface. We find ourselves thinking, feeling and acting in ways that do not reflect who we want to be. Some of us have Grief, Trauma or Addiction that we just can’t seem to work through. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a PHD(Hon), Master Degree and EMDR(Accredited), I've seen thousands come through my door, with various presenting issues and undergo genuine transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future.

I specialise in working with trauma (PTSD) this can be childhood trauma/abuse or a traumatic event/multiple events as an adult.
Every client is an individual. So my sessions are always adapted to fit the clients needs rather then the client fitting into the theory. Clients issues may range from relationship problems to historic abuse no one is the same, life creates curve balls. All personal needs and goals will be discussed and be a very important part of treatment. Most clients come to therapy as they feel they want to change something in their lives or to come to terms with an experience or issue. Many are hoping to resolve issues. Some simply need a safe place to share where they will not feel judged. No problem is too small in therapy.

I offer counselling and psychotherapy for children, teenagers and adults. With a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
Using a combination of psychodynamic, person-centred and CBT techniques, I work collaboratively with clients to develop personalised treatment plans that address their unique needs and goals. When working with young people I use a play therapy/creative approach, as often this can be the easiest way for children and teens to access their thoughts and emotions.

Whether you are looking for support through challenging times or trying to make sense of your life, talking to a professional counsellor can be really valuable when things feel overwhelming and uncertain, we all need help at times. Feelings we can’t manage or make sense of can impact on our whole sense of well-being and prevent us from living our lives fully. Counselling can help manage current situations and look at new ways of coping. It can also give us insight, understanding and perspective on past experiences.

Child Counsellors
Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How long are sessions with child therapists?
Children’s therapy sessions can last 30 minutes, 45 minutes, or 60 minutes. The length of the session may depend on your child’s age and the type of therapy practiced. You can discuss this with therapists you consult and the one you ultimately move forward with.
How do I get a child to agree to seek therapy?
The best approach is to have an open-ended conversation with your child about how they’re doing and what they might be struggling with. When you raise therapy, discuss the concept in an age-appropriate way, for example explaining that a therapist’s job is to help kids handle their hard or uncomfortable feelings. Frame therapy positively, as an opportunity to explore and build emotional skills—it’s an important tool in the toolbox to help kids feel their best.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
