About me and my therapy practice

I am a Psychotherapist and Counsellor of Children and Young People. I trained at the Institute for Arts in Therapy and Education. https://artspsychotherapy.org/

Experience

I have over twenty years experience working with Adults, Children and Young People in a  range of settings including Child and Adolescent Social Services Teams, CAMHS, Relate, Education, ASD units and YOT teams.

I have extensive experience of working with Children and Young People with an autism diagnosis. I have provided seminars and workshops for therapists and teaching staff on how to develop a therapeutic relationship, how to support and be an advocate for this client group.

Qualifications and Training

I am a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ accredited therapist which certifies that I have continued to develop my skills and experience beyond my original qualification and that I attend regular training and supervision to maintain a high standard of practice.

I graduated with a Masters Degree in Integrative Arts Psychotherapy in 2004 at the Institute for Arts in Therapy and Education.

In 2019 I obtained a Level 6 Graduate Advanced Diploma with Merit in Counselling Children and Young People using the Creative Arts at the Academy of Play and Child Psychotherapy (APAC) accredited programme with Leeds Beckett University.

In 2022 I completed the Advanced Certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling course which qualified for Professional Membership of ACTO, the Association for Counselling & Therapy Online.

Practice description

I provide sessions within schools as well as in private practice. Concessionary rates for education.

My first session

I provide a free initial consultation to discuss your needs  and whether I can be of use to you. This can be face to face, via phone or online.

The first session will include discussion and paper work for you to keep and sign regarding confidentiality, safe guarding, consent, privacy notice and use of any data collected and how this is stored.

This will be followed by further discussion of your needs, assessment and whether you would like to start sessions.

Online sessions are similar to face to face as we will be able to see and hear each other but will not be in the same room. I use a licensed Zoom account and an invite is sent out with a code to access.  You need a private space, a good internet connection, a webcam, speaker and microphone on your device. For Children and Young people a parent/ carer/ teacher needs to be present and or close by. I will discuss further if this is an option. Zoom has creative options to use online individually or with myself. 

What I can help with

Abuse, ADD / ADHD, Anxiety, Autism spectrum, Bereavement, Child related issues, Depression, Loss, Neurodiversity, Obsessions, OCD, Personal development, Phobias, Redundancy, Relationships, Self esteem, Self-harm, Stress, Trauma

Types of therapy

Creative therapy, Humanistic, Integrative, Person centred
