Children and Young People's Counselling and Psychotherapy-
Providing specialised therapy for children and young people dealing with anxiety, trauma, emotional challenges and more. Available for in-person or online sessions.
At Your Space Counselling and Psychotherapy, I create a calm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where children and young people can feel safe and comfortable. Together, we'll build trust and a strong connection, helping them feel free to share their thoughts, worries, and emotions.
I’m passionate about tailoring my approach to meet each person’s unique needs, no matter their age. I also bring in creative methods when it feels right, making the counselling process more engaging and helping it be as effective as possible.
I offer sessions both in person in Bristol and online. For more information about the counselling process, including fees, please have a look at the 'About Counselling' section.
Working with children and young people comes naturally to me, and I am particularly passionate about helping them feel heard, supported, and empowered to navigate difficult feelings, thoughts, and challenges.
With over 10 years of extensive training and experience, I have worked with children and young people of all ages and backgrounds, supporting them in a variety of settings and roles. This breadth of experience has deepened my understanding and ability to meet their unique needs in a challenging, ever-changing and neurotypical world.
