Mary Rennison

I am a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist ( MSc,  Reg. MBACP) experienced with working with teenagers and children in a variety of different settings. I aim to work flexibly to create a warm, caring and friendly environment to enable  young people to think and work through the issues they maybe facing in order to bring about lasting change.

I have experience working with anxiety, depression, low self esteem ( I have an interest in how dyslexia can effect mental health in young people) and identity , bereavement, panic attaks,  ADHD, ASD / autistic traits and any other issue that young people might face. I am always happy to support parents as they seek to find the right treatment for their child and refer on where necessary. I also offer parenting sessions for those moments when parents just need advice from  a professionals  about their child.

Each session is 50 minutes long. Initial first sessions are always an opportunity for me to do an assessment and for the young person to find out if I would be a helpful person to talk to before committing to any future session.

I charge £85 a session.

I ask for payment at the beginning of the session or in advance by BACS payment.
( I firmly believe that all parents and young people should be able to access a quality service especially when they are in a crisis moment with concerns about mental health. I therefore offer a sliding scale of payment which I am always very happy to discuss with my clients. I have found that people are very respectful of this offer and understand that by paying full fees  they enable me to offer lower rates to those who might need it.)
