About me and my therapy practice

I am a qualified Counsellor for Children and Young People and a certified Online and Telephone Counsellor.

 I am a registered member of The Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ).

I have a Diploma HE Counselling (Child and Young Person), and offer counselling to children and young people up to the age of 25 years. I offer a Person-Centred approach to Counselling and provide an autonomous environment for children and young people in which they can feel safe to explore, find their voice and effective communicative skills to help with the stresses of childhood and adolescence, so often experienced by many. As children and adolescents often find it difficult to express themselves emotionally using verbal communication, I also offer a creative aspect to my therapy, in the hope that feelings, emotions and experience can be explored more deeply through different media such as art, music and play.

As a Person-Centred Counsellor, I value each client individually and will work with whatever they bring, in a way in which they feel comfortable and supported to explore. My passion is to support the younger generation in enabling them to cope with the difficulties of their experience, not by telling them what to do or trying to ‘fix’ their situation, but by listening non-judgementally, and walking alongside them as they explore and find the answers they are looking for themselves.

I have over 20 years of experience working with children, primarily of pre-school and primary age and later with teenagers and adolescents. I have worked closely with children, their families and carers, to meet the needs of the individual child and support them to reach positive outcomes. Building a strong and trusting relationship with the child and their primary carers is essential to reaching such goals and this experience resonates throughout my approach to counselling.

Practice description

I currently run my private practice 'Ivy Tree Counselling' from my home in Haverhill, Suffolk (CB9) where I offer Face-to-Face sessions in my bespoke garden counselling room. Online counselling is available to clients aged 13 years and over if Face-to-face sessions are not accessible. I also offer Walk & Talk sessions for clients wishing to connect with nature and the freedom and space of the outdoors. Walk & Talk sessions are offered for clients aged 18 years and above. I am based in Haverhill, which is in West Suffolk (CB9) and borders the counties of Essex and Cambridgeshire. 

As a registered member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ) I adhere to working within their framework to ensure ethical practice.   

My first session

If you decide you would like to meet me, we can organise an initial assessment session, this will give you a feel for how I work, what I can offer and if you feel it would be useful for you. It is important that you feel you have found the right Counsellor for you or your child for the counselling process to be effective. For clients under 18, the assessment will take place with the child and their parents and/or carers.

Assessment sessions are charged at £55. Thereafter sessions are £45. Walk & Talk sessions are £50.

There is no obligation to continue with further sessions if you do not feel I am the right counsellor for you or your child.
