About me and my therapy practice

I am Ama, the founder and managing director of JASD Wellbeing Services. JASD Wellbeing Services is a private practice providing mental health support services for children, young people and adults. Wellbeing services include counselling, play therapy, mentoring, consultations and workshops. The services we offer can occur online or Face-to-face. 

I am an integrative counsellor/therapist using various forms of therapy and theory to elevate the mental health needs of others. This can include person-centred, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural therapy, systemic, solution focussed, play and creative therapy. They can all be applied as and when to suit the individual needs of the client, including whether to use play therapy, talking therapy or body movement/sports work. All of these have been carried out in school settings, remotely/online, in counselling rooms or by telephone. 

Counselling or mentoring support can be short-term at 6 sessions or 14 plus as longer-term work. Session lengths are 50 minutes for one-to-one and for group sessions, they are 1 hour- 1 hour 30 minutes. Group work can include 2-4 people and if there are more than 4 this will have to be discussed and deemed appropriate. 


Practice description

I specialise in supporting clients with anxiety, depression, school/career transitions, academic/work stress, self-esteem, anger, race/identity, domestic abuse/violence, relationship breakdowns and behaviour difficulties.
