I have been working with Adults and Young people for over ten years, in two settings. My own small successful private practice and working with Looked after Children struggling with their behaviour to make sense of the trauma they have experienced.
I also work alongside CAMHS (Children and Adolescent Mental Health Service). I have done further extensive training to enable me to work with and understand complex trauma, in both children and adults.
I have teamed up with my colleague Judith Knight to combine our experience in working with trauma, particularly with Children and Young People. Trauma work is a specialist way of working and understanding how trauma affects the brain and inhibits the child’s ability to grow emotionally, physically and psychologically is imperative to the treatment. My Work philosophy is underpinned by the works of Bruce Perry, Bessel van der Kolk and Renée Potgieter Marks.
