About me
I am a currently a qualified and UKCP accredited Child Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I trained at TACT on the Children’s Psychotherapeutic Counselling Course. My training helped me explore a range of different theories and I am confident across several integrated therapies. I use a relational model and believe that a good therapeutic-client rapport is vital for growth. My experience with children and young people is stretched over nine years. Initially, as a sports coach and a primary school teacher before qualifying as a therapist. I have worked with a range of ages from five to seventeen years of age. Additionally, I have worked with children from a variety of backgrounds, gender, ethnicities and non-English speaking children via an interpreter.

Approach
‘I believe therapy gives people a regular and confidential space to talk about their worries, problems or a chance to explore more about themselves. Talking to therapist in a confidential setting can help people gain a new or different perspective. This can lead to changes in how they feel about themselves, relationships with others as well as their thinking and behaviour’.
I have a range of knowledge of the presenting issues: anxiety and low self-esteem, complex-trauma, sexual abuse, bereavement and loss, self-harm, domestic violence, family and relational issues.
I have also recently begun formal training of the Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy at TACT and I am available to work from the Redcar or Norton offices with children/young people and adults (offering a lower cost for adult clients).
