Welcome
I am a prescriptive Play Therapist, tailoring therapy to meet the individual needs of each client and family. My preference where possible, is to upskill carers through provision of support, information, strategies, etc so that families are not dependent on long term therapy. Play therapy typically involves close work with carers and this may make up a bulk of the therapy component, especially in the initial stages.
​
I have specific interests in and extensive experience working with:
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder,
- Anxiety
- Autism
- Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA)
- Complex Trauma and Medical Trauma
- Bereavement and grief
- Children in separated families
Play Therapy is evidence-based and supports developmental, emotional, behavioural, social and mental health concerns. It can be used with people of all ages and for many concerns.
