I have also been trained by Place2Be working at a school with children 5 - 18 years.
Life’s pressures can sometimes make us feel unsure of ourselves and this can make us feel unhappy. Our true selves can get buried under the weight of conditioning and other people’s ideas of who we are, and we can lose sense of where we are going. I am a warm, caring integrative therapist who will work by encouraging you to find answers from within. I can help you discover the person you were before you drew conclusions from others. I believe we all have the power to choose who we want to be. There is only one person that we can change and that is ourself and I can help you as you embark on this journey of discovery and growth.

I provide online individual sessions to adults and children age 6+, systemic (family) and dyadic (parent/ child).
So often people suffer in silence instead of reaching out for support. Whether you are looking for a therapist for yourself or have concerns about your child, teenager or family member, I will provide an engaging and individual approach. I am an experienced artist and art psychotherapist with a private practice in my home in Richmond. You do not need to be an ‘artist’ or ‘good at art’ to benefit from making and engaging in art therapy. It is not about producing masterpieces (although you may surprise yourself). And although all materials are included and their use encouraged, art making during sessions is not a requirement.
