IT IS ONLY IN BEING CREATIVE THAT THE INDIVIDUAL DISCOVERS SELF

CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE
 

​

​

​

​

​

I work therapeutically with children and young people from age 11 up. I am not a play therapist, but I will use creative strategies where appropriate. My approach involves meeting you exactly where and as you are, exploring your landscape and seeing things from your point of view. I aim to be gentle and warm-hearted so that together we can begin to look at things you are struggling with. 

​

​​​

 

Whatever the aim of our work together, I will always try to:

​

-become highly attuned to your experiences in the World

(really understanding your point of view)

​

-give you an opportunity to think and talk about what has happened

​

-help you make sense of complex emotions

​

-increase your self confidence and sense of self 

​

-build your sense of agency

(feeling like its okay to act to make your life how you want it to be)

​

-develop your passions and find a way to laugh and be playful

 

-help you to tell your own story

I have substantial experience of working with young people with the gift of difference, whether that be neurodiversity, PDA, mental health challenges, learning difficulties or physical difference. I am trained in SEND and child development, having worked in multi-agency environments for many years.
