About me and my therapy practice

Parents and carers bring their children and young people to see me often because of uncharacteristic changes in their child's attitude or behaviour, either at home or school. They have tried everything and are exhausted with worry, fearing that their child or teenager will only get worse. Family life is suffering, and the future is beginning to look bleak.

Whether or not you've reached this 'last straw' place, children and young people can find it helpful speaking to a relative 'stranger'. For my part, I help them to understand that whatever 'the problem' is, the problem is the problem and not them. Through talk and play, we can try to unravel what's happening to the child or young person's world to understand better how they see and experience the world around them.

I have experience supporting children and young people in various organisations such as schools, specialist agencies and children and family centres.

I appreciate how difficult taking a step like this can be, so meeting with you and your child or young person before they begin therapy is essential. It provides an opportunity to share your concerns, discuss, what happens next and answer any questions about the therapy and ongoing sessions.

Working with Parents/Carers

As well as supporting children and young people, I work with the parents or carers during the course of sessions by regular telephone catch-ups to understand the parents or carers’ perspective and detail any apparent changes.

Working with adults

I also offer therapy to adults. If you wish to explore feelings and thoughts that may be holding you back or keeping you stuck in some way and seek change, please get in touch to discuss how I may be able to help you.  

My first session

Please allow for an initial meeting lasting no more than one hour. It provides an opportunity to meet and share your concerns and for me to meet you and your child or young person. 

I will complete an assessment and provide details of the therapy and what's involved. 

There is a session charge of £65 for this meeting.
