I specialise in working with children and young people aged 5-17 who may be experiencing emotional, behavioural and communication difficulties associated with any of the following:
- loss and bereavement
- parental separation and divorce
- bullying, low self-esteem
- anxiety and stress
- eating disorders
- trauma
- abuse or neglect
Watch the following animation to help children understand and manage their feelings:
Children and adolescents usually use play and art making as a way to express themselves and to work through worries and concerns. This can:
- promote emotional and social well-being
- build self-esteem and confidence
- explore difficult feelings in a safe space
- encourage self-expression
- improve communication and relationships
- encourage greater social awareness
- develop boundaries
- relationships and trust
- explore body awareness and personal space
