About
As a mental health practitioner, I am particularly interested in early intervention and well-being support. I work exclusively with children aged 3 to 11, and adolescent girls between 12 and 17 years old.
I specialise in child-centred play therapy (CCPT) and person-centred therapy (PCT). In my work with teenage girls, I sometimes draw from solution-focused, cognitive behavioural and sand tray therapeutic modalities. But my overall approach is rooted in person-centred theory.
Significantly, research shows that the client-clinician relationship is the most important predictor of positive treatment outcomes, regardless of the approach.
In addition to engaging in individual CCPT supervision, I am a member of the CCPT Collective, an international community of play therapists with the collective goal of preserving and advancing the child-centered model. I also attend regular group supervision at my workplace.
