Claire Jakobsson

I am a Child and Adolescent Integrative counsellor that uses creative arts and play in therapy sessions. I run my own private practice and work in family homes or schools if required. My post graduate diploma was completed at the Insitute of Arts for Therapy in Education, London. 

I have worked with children,young people and their families for over 20 years. My work as a counsellor and my experience of working with parents means I have a number of training tools to support parents with their children's emotional development. 

I run workshops in my practice and in the local community. Workshops can be bespoke to your individual requirements. I use the application of arts and play within all of my therapeutic groups. 

I work in primary and secondary schools with individuals, groups and teachers. Providing support and strategies for children and staff. My well being model has been successful in supporting outcomes in personal, social and emotional development. 

I offer therapy sessions for

Children 4-11

Adolescents 12-18 

Child and Parent Sessions 

I provide a complimentary telephone conversation. This gives you a chance to share with me your worries and to understand more about the process of child therapy.  

We decide on session times and complete a working together agreement. 

You may be asked to attend the first session alongside your child. Especially for younger children. 

After 6 sessions we will review progress.
