About me
A child therapist who uses play as the child's natural language.
I am a qualified Play Therapist with a playroom in Warminster town centre. I offer weekly sessions for children aged 3-12 years. I have many years of experience and training, working with children and families who have experienced trauma.
I use a child-centred approach; this allows children with all types of support needs to be able to access therapy. I work closely with parents, supporting them along the way.

Further information
I have worked with children and families for over 26 years and am passionate about the work I do. I offer a calm, containing space and build trusting relationships with the children, allowing them to be their true selves and to work through and understand their feelings. Building positive self-esteem, allowing them to accept and express feelings, respect themselves, gain skills in confronting problems, self-control and self-direction, accept themselves at a feelings level and to make choices and be responsible for those choices.
