What Can I Support You With?

I predominantly work with children and young people from age 5 to 17 and their parents/carers providing 1:1 and dyadic trauma focused therapy within my own therapeutic space. I can also provide extra support to older children and teens, as well as parents and carers via alternative therapy, which works well alongside psychotherapy. Virtual parenting sessions or assessments can be offered and in special circumstances therapy within the home environment or virtually can also be offered.
