Hi, I’m Liz, an Accredited Play and Creative Arts Therapist with BACP and PTUK at Jacaranda Therapy. I support children and young people who may be struggling with anxiety, anger, trauma, difficult experiences or big emotions. Sometimes children don’t have the words to explain how they feel. Through play and creative activities such as art, sand, LEGO, clay and puppets, I provide a safe, accepting space where they can express themselves at their own pace. Together, we can build confidence, resilience and emotional regulation, helping them develop coping skills for the future.
I support children and young people experiencing anxiety, anger, low confidence, emotional difficulties and trauma, including domestic abuse and family substance use. Through play and creative arts therapy, I provide a safe space to express feelings, build confidence and resilience, and develop healthy ways to cope.
It can be difficult to know how to help when your child is struggling. I offer a safe, supportive space where children and young people can explore their feelings at their own pace, build confidence and resilience, and develop tools to manage emotions. Every child is unique, and I would be happy to explore how I can support you.

I use play and creative arts to help children and young people express thoughts and feelings when words can be difficult. Sessions are adapted to each child and what they need that day, using creative activities such as art, sand, LEGO, clay and puppets. At their pace, we build understanding, confidence and emotional awareness in a safe, supportive space.
