My work with children, young people and families spans schools, community and mental health settings, alongside my psychotherapy practice. Those experiences have taught me to look beyond the immediate problem and stay curious about the person living through it.
I’m an integrative child and adolescent psychotherapist who also works with young adults and parents. Much of my work involves anxiety, neurodivergence, relationships, family dynamics, identity and life changes. I value the moments when someone feels understood, finds a way to express something difficult or notices they have more choice than they thought.
Sometimes the concern is clear anxiety, a loss, a difficult relationship or a child struggling at school. Sometimes all you know is that someone is working very hard to hold things together.
I work with children, young people, young adults and parents. I pay attention to what is happening now and to the relationships, experiences and pressures around it. We might talk, work creatively or try something practical. I bring my experience and ask questions, but we make sense of things together. Trust is central to that work and we build it over time.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
