Please contact me directly so that we can find a time that suits both you and your child.

Hello, I am an experienced and fully accredited Integrative Child and Adolescent Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, MBACP UKCP.

I work with children, adolescents and parents (carers) in both private practice and schools.  I am also trained to work online.

As an integrative psychotherapist I draw on a wide range of theories and styles, recognising  each child as an individual. Using the child’s natural form of expression; creativity and play to explore their feelings.

I work with (for example)

ADD/ADHD (attention disorders)

Anxiety

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Bereavement and loss

Bullying

Challenging behaviour

Depression

Difficulties at school

Family conflict

OCD

Fear and phobias

Friendship issues

Family conflict

Oppositional or defiant behaviour

Physical ailments

Separation anxiety

Selected mute

Self-harm and self-destructive behaviour

Sleeping issues

Stress

Trauma

Withdrawl

I offer a calm and welcoming space at my studio in West London. Here your child or adolescent can explore their emotions verbally or using different modalities such as drawing, painting, clay, sand, music, storytelling, puppets and play.

I offer both short and long term work. There is a minimum of six sessions.

Each session is 50 minutes long (online sessions may be shorter)

After an initial consultation we will work together to find a time that works best for you and your child.
