Further information
Children and young people frequently experience emotional difficulties which impact on their overall well being and confidence. These issues can manifest themselves in broader problems including withdrawal, physical ailments, failing to thrive at school (socially and / or academically) and a general feeling of things just not being right.
Therapy can help children and adolescents to navigate these challenges in a supportive and empathetic environment. Whilst the articulation of deeply held feelings is important, offering practical tools can provide the child or young person with the foundations of good mental health for life and can help them to feel happier, more in control and more confident overall.
I find that my current training as a child and adolescent psychotherapist is deepening my work with adults by exposing me to a wide range of creative techniques such as art and sand therapy. This training is also helpful when talking to adults about issues that can be linked back to their own childhood and also useful in supporting parents with the everyday challenges of parenting.
