About me and my therapy practice

I am an integrative, relational psychotherapeutic counsellor. My foundations are in Transactional Analysis( Berne, 1961), this facilitates an understanding of the development and structure of individual personality.

Being child led is very important to me and I enjoy working creatively, and intuitively through play to enable children and young people to tell their stories.

My practice is grounded in the values of humanistic philosophy, adopting a holistic approach to human existence, encouraging us to view ourselves as a whole person greater than the sum of our parts, promotes free will, self-discovery, creativity, personal responsibility and human potential. I work relationally using the core conditions of empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard.

I have extensive experience of working with children across a variety of settings, and currently work in schools. My own 5 children have also given me invaluable experience to draw upon, and I’m still learning.

Practice description

As a BACP registered Psychotherapeutic Counsellor I work within a safe, nurturing and contained space, fully informed and guided by the BACP ethical framework.

My 4 year training at The Northern Guild, considered to be one of the best training institutes in the UK, was specifically undertaken to work with children and young people.

A requirement of my training was to complete 120 hours of my own therapy, and as a result I have experienced how transformative it can be.

I offer short and long term face to face therapy. Sessions last for 50 minutes. If you are interested in my help you are welcome to contact me to arrange for an initial chat or meeting. Introductory sessions are also available to ensure that clients feel comfortable with me as it is a huge, and daunting thing for a child to agree to come to therapy.

My first session

I offer an introductory first session to ensure that you feel that I am the right fit for your child’s/young persons needs. If you are interested in my help I am happy to have an initial phone chat prior to proceeding.

The charge for an introductory session is £30
