Welcome

Finding the right therapist for your needs can be a daunting task. I hope that the information on this page will be useful and you will feel encouraged to take the first step.

As a mental health specialist, I work exclusively with children and adolescents, as detailed below:

  • Children aged 3 to 11 years old: Child-centred play therapy.
  • Adolescent girls between 12 and 17 years old: Person-centred counselling.
  • Parents: Consulting and psychoeducation.
Frequent issues that clients bring to therapy:
  • Anxiety and low mood.
  • Adjustment to life events (e.g. birth of sibling; starting school or moving house away from family and friends).
  • Common childhood problems and concerns (e.g. low self-esteem, poor social skills, bullying and emotional self-regulation issues).
  • Communication difficulties (e.g. struggling to express thoughts, feelings and emotions).
  • Grief and loss (including parent separation and family breakdown).
  • Trauma (e.g. childhood, medical, relational or developmental).
