Welcome

My clinic is based in central Petersfield, Hampshire, where I work both in-person and online.

As a Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist and Conscious Parenting Guide, I combine my passion for the healing power of creativity along with a long-held commitment to the emotional, psychological and spiritual wellbeing of children and their families.

I support children and adolescents, many neurodivergent, who may be struggling with a variety of ‘big feelings' such as anxiety, panic, overwhelm or shut down. Some of these challenges may be leading to school avoidance, low self worth, meltdowns, isolation or other distressing outcomes.

Due to the significant rise in parental anxiety, stress and worry over the last few years I have created a dedicated Conscious Parenting Clinic. Through my extensive experience, as well as being a parent myself, I work closely with families to co-create a home environment where there is more respect, harmony and happiness.

Services

My Petersfield-based practise has grown exponentially over the last few years and I have expanded from working solely with children and adolescents to include focused Conscious Parenting support. I have also co-created successful school programmes, teaching children to recognise and manage their emotions, in addition to working with groups of Children, Educators and Parents.

Conscious Parenting

The Conscious Parenting Clinic equips parents with tools to support and guide their child, whilst becoming a better parent in the process.

The ‘Conscious Parenting’ approach shifts the focus away from the child onto the adults' actual experiences as a parent.

This involves creating a safe space where parents can reflect on their current parenting style. The process will facilitate a better understanding of unconscious patterns and behaviours, opening the door to becoming a more present and aware parent.

1:1 Child & Adolescent Counselling

I address children's behavioural, developmental and emotional needs in a safe and comfortable environment, engaging the therapeutic arts. This technique is especially helpful for children who may have difficulty expressing themselves verbally and has become increasingly popular as it combines traditional talk therapy with the therapeutic qualities of making art.

The therapeutic arts is a respected and effective approach to help children cope and better manage their emotional and behavioural challenges which may be causing confusion, overwhlem, or distress. Many children find this approach enormously beneficial and very effective at resolving issues by gently unearthing the root of their challenges through creativity and, often, play
