I focus on therapeutic work with children, adolescents and parents. I am happy to work with presenting issues such as developmental concerns, child emotional and behavioural problems, depression (including post-partum depression), anxiety, self-esteem end personality issues, family difficulties, bereavement, trauma and adjustment difficulties.
I have a particular interest and training in art therapy, therefore creative expression is welcomed as part of therapy. With young children I use play therapy and I also offer parenting work. Parent-child pairs are supported through parent-child psychotherapy or parent-infant psychotherapy.
My aim is to facilitate a safe, non-judgemental and creative space that stimulates a process of self-reflection, self-expression and growth. My orientation to therapy is largely psychodynamic. That means that therapy is an exploratory process where therapist and client work together to identify and understand patterns of relating to oneself and others.
