About me and my therapy practice
I am a person centered, integrative counsellor, qualified to Masters level to help young people from 4 to 24. I use a variety of techniques dependant on the needs and preferences of my clients. Creative therapies are very helpful for all my clients when words are difficult and these include, art, play, sand tray, crafts, games, mono drama, empty chair techniques. Some clients prefer to talk and that's also fine, whatever feels most comfortable. I am in Cheshire and Northamptonshire and can provide home visits, or online.
