Specialism

As a psychotherapist with extensive experience working with children and young adults, I have developed expertise in several areas that I feel extremely passionate about. I understand that each individual’s experience is unique, and my goal is to offer personalised support to those facing a variety of challenges. I help them build coping strategies, improve self-esteem, and regain a sense of safety, while also supporting families in creating healthier, more supportive environments.

School & Education

The school environment can be stressful for many children and adolescents. Academic pressures, social challenges, and many transitions can be overwhelming. I provide support for students dealing with issues such as exam anxiety, peer pressure, bullying, and adjusting to new educational environments. We’ll explore practical tools and coping strategies that can help students manage the pressures they face while building confidence in their academic and personal lives.

SEND

Supporting children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities is something I am deeply committed to. Whether it’s addressing challenges related to learning difficulties, ADHD, autism, or other conditions, I work closely with both young people and their families to build strategies for success in school and life. I collaborate with educational professionals to ensure that each child’s unique needs are met, fostering an environment of understanding, acceptance, and growth.

Social Media

In today’s digital age, social media plays a significant role in shaping how we perceive ourselves and interact with others. For many, social media can lead to issues with self-esteem, anxiety, and body image through unhealthy comparisons. I help clients navigate the pressures and potential harms of social media, providing strategies to manage online presence and develop healthier boundaries, resisting the pressure to conform to unrealistic standards. We foster authentic self-worth that isn’t reliant on online validation.

Relationships

Healthy relationships are fundamental to emotional well-being, but navigating them can be challenging at any stage of life. Whether it’s family dynamics, friendships, or romantic relationships, I offer support for individuals and couples looking to improve communication, set boundaries, and resolve conflicts. If you’re struggling with relationship issues, I provide a supportive environment to explore your feelings, gain clarity, and work towards healthier, more fulfilling connections.

Domestic Abuse

Children who witness or experience domestic abuse are deeply impacted, often carrying emotional scars that can last a lifetime. This trauma can lead to anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and difficulties with trust. Children may also struggle with academics, social interactions, and emotional regulation. I provide a safe space for children to express their emotions, process their experiences, and build coping strategies, helping them improve self-esteem and regain a sense of safety.

Eating Disorders

Eating disorders can have a profound impact on both mental and physical health. Whether it's struggling with anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore the emotional and psychological roots of their relationship with food. Together, we’ll work to break harmful patterns and develop healthier coping mechanisms, building self-esteem and a positive relationship with your body.
