I am a qualified integrative child and adolescent counsellor/psychotherapist. This means I integrate various therapeutic and creative approaches to meet the mental health needs of a child or young person. Therapy is not a one size fits all, and I find adapting my approach according to a child or young person’s developmental level helps with their engagement with the therapeutic process. For some clients talking therapy might be appropriate, but for clients who may find it difficult to express themselves verbally may respond better to creative approaches such as creative arts-based therapy or play-based therapy.I have worked in schools for ten years in wellbeing and supportive roles. I currently run and provide counselling services in schools in South London and Richmond. I also see clients privately.
