I am a professional therapist that's trained to work with children, adults and couples. If you or your child are experiencing difficulties with their well-being, relationships or mental health etc., then hopefully I will be be able to support you/them. I am adaptive in my practice and work on a client led basis, using lots of different therapy types in order to support personal growth.
My therapy can involve different talking methods or even play/art based methods for younger children, and may also include hypnotherapy (if suitable) in order to aim to meet need.
If you feel you want to talk then please get in touch. All of us experience difficulties in our life at various points, and sometimes we just need to talk, gain clarity and adapt our perspective/s in order to move forward and address them more effectively. I am approachable, versatile and have a full DBS (if you require support for your child).
