I am able to provide tailored 1-1, or small group, Non- directive Play Therapy services to children from 4 to 19. This can be at my clinic or within school settings.
I also offer pre-school age therapeutic support, with attachment based programmes, and general well being support across the age range. This is in partnership and working with parents / carers to offer them help as and when required.
My main areas of support include children dealing with loss, bereavement, trauma, ASD/ADHD,emotional upheaval, behavioural challenges, poor educational achievement, poor focus, low self esteem, school or social exclusion and attachment related difficulties.I have specific experience with the adoption support fund and trauma based support.
I am a Certified Registered Play Therapist, Clinical Supervisor, Qualified Infant massage teacher, licencesed practitioner for parent child attachment play, heart to heart, baby / toddler bonding programmes and a nursery nurse with over 40 years experience of working directly with children and families within health, child care settings and social care. I have a part time private practice within the Hinckley area and am able to travel to other locations.
- Referral process
- The referral process is based on clinical assessment using Goodman's Strengths and Difficulties Tool (SDQ) and face to face meetings/phone calls. Parents/ carers ,with PR, can refer directly for private play therapy work. Referrals can also be made by educational establishments including pre-school, schools, specialist school provision and further / higher education. Referrals are welcomed by providers of post adoption support, fostering, social care and insurance based services. All referral are progressed based on the outcomes of the clinical assessment.I would advised contacting me, in the first instance, to get advice on next steps.
