Availability

I am working online only for the time being.

I am happy to accept self referrals from anyone with a concern about a child or young person.

Self referrals from children and young people are welcome. We will have an initial conversation and decide together the best way to go forward. 

About me and my therapy practice

Children and young people have been my therapeutic focus for over 25 years. They have taught me that they don't necessarily need therapy but they might need a dynamic, interactive, warm, attuned and interested relationship with someone who is a therapist. 

I do not offer a 'calm, safe space'. Safe, definitely, but not always calm and certainly not a space but a live person. We talk, tell stories and share understanding in ways that help children grow until they are ready to set off on their own once again. 

Practice description

My first session

If a parent or carer is making the first contact, I speak briefly with them to answer questions and agree terms for providing the service. I then ask to speak initially with the child or young person on the phone so we can talk and get a sense of each other and I can answer any questions before we decide to go ahead and meet online on Zoom. There is no charge for these initial contacts. 

If a child contacts me directly, we speak on the phone initially to talk through next steps. This is in line with UK law on consent for children with capacity.
