Abi Dean

I have availability and where necessary, would advise of any wait time.

My name is Abi, and I specialise in Counselling Children, Young People and Families. 

I am passionate about the difference Therapy can make, and the life changing results that it can bring about. I adjust the way I work to meet my client’s needs, and use Therapeutic Play with our youngest children, which involves children working with specific play resources to process their trauma, such as sand, puppets, figures or craft. It is very child led, and my role is to support whatever the child brings into the Therapeutic space. 

I use a combined approach for young people and families, which means that I tailor what we do depending on what the client brings to the session. Sometimes I might use resources to support expression such as pictures, or a set of cards, or drawing/painting, and for other clients talking may be the preferred approach.

Please contact me by email, for any further information and if you would like therapy for a child or young person.
