About me and my therapy practice
In 2004, I qualified as an integrative counselor, and then, in 2014, I was certified as a DDP(Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapist) Therapist/Consultant and a Theraplay Therapist. Theraplay is a therapy where parents and their children play together.These are both Dyadic Attachment Therapies for parents and children. They aim to support families to develop relationships based on trust and a deeper understanding of each other. Working Dyadically means therapy sessions can be with the parents/ carers and children in the room to help promote understanding and empathy. The heart of DDP and Theraplay is to help a child feel safe through relationships.
Theraplay is play-based therapy where parents and their children are helped to reconnect and experience fun and joy with each other
I am also available to see individuals. parents, careers without children for therapy either because they are experiencing relationship difficulties with their children or because they have a relationship or personal issues they would like to explore.
Practice description
clients can expect me to show empathy and acceptance but also be gently challenged. I have a wealth of experience in relationships and issues relating to parenting. If a client is seeking support with concerns about their child, I would always want to have several sessions with the parent or parents alone to gain a good understanding of what the issues are. I would always be open and sensitive to the parent (s). parents must never feel judged, but instead gain an understanding of the issues they are facing
My first session
usually the first session would be used as an assessment to for both the client and myself to ascertain whether i am the best therapist to meet their needs. if it feels like a good match then I would ask the client to complete a goal-based assessment form which outlines the goals they would like to achieve. this would be followed by regular reviews to ensure that the client continues to feel the therapy is meeting there needs
