About me and my therapy practice
I am a very experienced play therapist aged 5-25 yrs.
I have worked in the state sector as the lead counsellor in primary and secondary schools for over 30 yrs. I now work in a shed in my garden. Very peaceful.
Am a clinical supervisor.

Practice description
I offer 40/50 minute sessions depending upon age and ability to talk and play.
My shed is FULL of toys and art equipment, books, fiddle toys, stuff
I am quite directive and talk a lot with the clients if they want to, which they usually do but playing/being playful is a huge part of the session if they roll with that. If not I try other ways which are more verbal.
We have fun as well as serious times.
The clients love the space in my garden too.
I also have 2 tortoises which are always a winner !
Before the sessions start I have a phone consultation with parents which I don’t charge for.
Often parents will want to come to the shed for a face to face consultation for an hour at £65.
My first session
No different but we will find out what’s bought them to me etc
No pressure to come back as I always stress
