About me

I have trained as a child counsellor at the Institute of Arts in Therapy and Education in London. I have worked with a wide range of children in various settings including primary schools and specialist services for excluded children as well as running workshops for children and adolescents.

I have a background in art and design and am amazed by how the creative arts and play help to heal. I believe that behind any behaviour we find that children are struggling with emotions and events that they have not been able to process or understand. This can result in a negative self-image and worrying behaviour. When children or teens feel better about themselves and the events that have passed, worrying and difficult behaviour drops away.

I am fully DBS-checked and insured and a registered member of the B.A.C.P..

I also enjoy writing and spend time practising Tai Chi and meditation. I also provide therapy for retreats and courses for mental health and wellbeing.
