About Me
I am a fully qualified Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist registered with BACP (British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy) and follow their code of ethics and professional conduct.
​​
I have over 20 years of experience working with children, young people and parents in a variety of settings including schools, charities, the voluntary and private sector.
​
Central to how I work is to provide a respectful and attuned space to help reduce distress.
My approach is to facilitate self-awareness and alternative perspectives in order to bring about lasting growth, self-acceptance and improved communication.
Sometimes people choose to focus on current life issues and my specialism in understanding how early experiences can impact can help shine light on what approach might be most helpful.
​
My work integrates a variety of approaches, specifically attachment, psychodynamic and neurobiology.
​​
I am fully DBS checked and follow the current government guidelines on Data Protection.
