Counselling using creative arts for young people aged 10 and over
If you're feeling low or depressed, having friendship issues, or something is happening or has happened in your life that's causing you to feel distressed or anxious you may need a safe adult separate from those around you, to explore the feelings and emotions you're experiencing.
​
I have experience of helping young people with a wide variety of difficulties and offer a safe, non-judgemental and nurturing space where sessions take place on a weekly basis.

As you grow older the ability to use play to show how you feel is often diminished or lost.
I also recognise that you may find yourself ready to talk more freely about what is going on for you. And sometimes this might not be so easy...
However, I provide you with the use of creative media to use alongside, or instead of talking - you have the option!
Often, your use of the arts and crafts materials that I provide helps you to express yourself when the words just can't be found.
I also have some play equipment in my room, suitable for all age groups, just in case these are useful for you to use in any way you need.
The most important thing is that you're making the choice and are in charge of your own process
​
I am an integrative therapist which means I weave in different techniques depending on what works best for each individual I see. This includes using sand, art, games, Emotional Logic and also use approaches to help autistic or neurodivergent people
