I am an integrative child and adolescent counsellor, working with young people aged 3 to 18. My approach is flexible and tailored, drawing on a range of therapeutic modalities to meet the unique needs of each child or teenager. This allows me to adapt the way I work so that it best supports your child’s growth, wellbeing, and emotional expression.

 I support children and adolescents through a relational approach that draws on creativity, play, and the arts. Depending on their age and needs, this may include working with puppets, creative play, or offering walk-and-talk sessions for older adolescents. I aim to provide a safe and supportive space where young people can explore and express their feelings. I use Dan Hughes’ PACE model—playfulness, acceptance, curiosity, and empathy—to help build trust and connection, fostering an environment where they feel truly heard and understood.

I am situated in central Tunbridge Wells within easy access of the station, and a parking space is available.

Before beginning work with a child, I meet with parents or carers for an initial consultation. This session is a chance to gather background information, hear your concerns, and develop a clearer understanding of what your child may be experiencing. It also provides space for us to discuss how therapy might best support your child moving forward.
