About me and my therapy practice
Compassionate and empathetic, solutions oriented MBACP Integrative Children and Adolescent Counsellor, broad experience of working with 4-17-year olds. I hone in on each child’s unique worldview, and we work together to formulate a plan that supports them with their challenges and helps them discover a greater purpose and approach to the various areas of their life.
I work one-to-one and remotely to transform their outlook, well-being and utilise mental strategies, engaging in holistic tools such as mindfulness, meditation and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) where appropriate. I use several theories of therapeutic work, including Psychodynamic theory, Attachment theory, play therapy and Person-Centred approaches.
I match the right strategies, and methodologies to build a stronger sense of resolve in young people, that enables them to commit, engage and produce amazing results. An expert in using interpersonal skills, communication styles and well-being approaches to enable young people to be the best they can be.
