Young people face a wide range of challenges in their lives, and my goal is to provide them with the early support they need to navigate these demanding years. Through the therapeutic sessions, we will work together with the aim to help the young person to build resilience and pave the way for a brighter, more promising future.

I take pride in tailoring my support to address each client's unique challenges and needs. Whether they are grappling with emotional hurdles like anxiety, OCD, or low mood, or facing neurodevelopmental conditions such as ASD and ADHD, I'm here to offer guidance and a helping hand.

In my eleven years of experience of working with young people, my clients have discovered that seeking assistance through therapy has made a significant positive impact on their lives. It's a journey towards personal growth and emotional well-being that I'm honoured to accompany them on.

The sessions

An Individual online therapy session lasts between 30-50 mins, depending on age and needs of young person.

Therapy is an open ended which means that length of it will work off assessment of you which means that it can continue for as long as you feel you need it.

The first step

Together, we will complete an assessment of the difficulties you are facing , as this will allow me to gain a better understanding of how I can support you.

Following this, an introduction session will take place to provide you with the experience of what the therapy will be like.

Fees

Typically, sessions start from £45

Block of 6 sessions can be purchased for £240

Therapy myth busters

  • We are not here to tell you what to do, instead, we will work together to help you to gain a better understanding of yourself and learn ways of how you can help yourself.

  • No, therapy can take place both face to face AND remotely, which many people prefer as it can take place in the comfort of your own home or your ‘safe space’, meaning you will feel calm and relaxed which makes it easier for you to engage. It is convenient and flexible as it takes away the time and stress of having to travel to your sessions.

  • You can work both verbally and creatively during remote therapy, and the advantage of being online means it can offer many different ways of working creatively to express yourself that you wouldn’t be able to just by using your words.

  • In therapy, you can talk about yourself without having to worry about being judged or upsetting other people’s feelings or being told what to do! Your therapy is just time for you.

What will my online therapy session be like?

Basic

Every therapy session will be slightly different to meet the individual needs of the young person. However, you can expect the sessions to include the following elements:

Intermediate

Goal setting

Coping strategies

Progress tracking

Emotional check ins

Advanced

Digital Play therapy

Young people often can find it challenging to express their thoughts and feelings, and therefore it is often more appropriate to explore these inner thoughts through the medium of play.

Offering this remotely allows children who perhaps struggle with new environments, or have barriers to attending in-person therapy, the chance to still benefit from age-appropriate therapy.

These sessions will provide creative and play based activities to deliver the therapeutic session.
