Counsellor | Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
I am a qualified counsellor, working with adults, children and families. My passion is supporting parents, children and whole families. I recognise the parenting journey can have challenges along the way and I will work alongside you to support you and help you find the way through. I work creatively with children, through play and creative therapy and I incorporate some elements of this when working with adults (everyone I have done this with likes it, I promise). I support parents through a parenting programme based on Gandhi’s peaceful protest, (NVR – Non-violence Resistance), where families are experiencing controlling and challenging behaviour from their child (such as either through violence, verbal abuse, behaviours relating to OCD or ASD). I love this programme and it has so many applications to all relationships in your life.
I can also support families who are experiencing relational problems, providing families with a space to work through any issues they are experiencing, helping you find the answers which fit your family.
In all of the work I do with people, I help you to find your own answers and I will support you along this journey in a safe and non-judgmental way.
I help support children with a range issues, such as emotional regulation, anxiety, self harm, low mood / depression and understanding OCD, ADHD or ASD.
I support adults in relational problems, low mood / depression, anxiety, grief and relationships with unhelpful coping strategies.
