Clinical Supervision and Reflective Spaces for adults and professionals are available on different days and subject to discussion.

I hold a specialism in working with vulnerable Children and Young People (7 -26 years) both as a Therapist and Clinical Supervisor. 

I really understand that some young clients come to therapy with unprocessed emotional experiences that may be impacting their capacity to thrive in the here and now . Alongside this, unpredictable behaviour or changes in life can be painful, confusing and  of sync' for the whole family - despite feeling once close or at least able to connect to each other in more hopeful and safe way.

I am often curious about what is important to the children and young people I work with - in their own words. This may include; explorations of; difference, friendships, identity, loss, academic pressure, overthinking,  isolation and self doubt. If of interest, I can offer a range of pathways to explore whatever is important via talk therapy,  creativity (drawing and image making) music, movement, and psychoeducation about our developing brains, developmental stages and stress -  so that young people can start to understand what may be happening inside of them when things feel wrong.xplorations are always an invite, and never a must or should - a client's voice and pace is always respected as indicative of something important.

My psychological framework to work with children and young adults is centrally Relational,  Attachment Focused, Trauma informed ( I am specifically trained in body based trauma treatment ).  The frame is also developmentally guided and creatively based given sometimes words are not enough, or available for what we have experienced.  

Sessions with me ultimately seek to support vulnerable clients to; rediscover a sense of security, self belief and hope. With time, non judgement and trust,  many clients can and do rediscover the sense of themselves they like best.
