The use of the Arts may include drawing, puppets, sand-tray, clay work, board games, etc. and inclusion of the arts is optional. Sessions are 50 mins and my practice draws on the integration of four theoretical theories: attachment, neuroscience, psychodynamic and systemic. 

CAT offers the following:

1. Individual Counselling - weekly support to children and young people aged 4-25 year olds to explore and express emotions that may be bottled up or expressed uncontrollably.  

2. Parent-Child/Family counselling – therapeutic support for parents and children who may be experiencing difficulties managing their relationships possibly due to, break-down in communication, attachment difficulties, a traumatic or unexpected event(s).

4. Family and Youth Arts projects – tailored therapeutic group-work arts based workshops or projects, delivered in partnership with organisations. Project duration is between 6 – 14 weeks inclusive of performance or screening events and opportunities to gain Arts Awards qualification (GCSE equivalency).

Sessions run for 50 minutes and can be either short-term (up to 6 weeks) or long-term (between 1- 2 years). Sessions can take place in schools, community settings and within the home.
