Work with adolescents

According to one recent newspaper report, there has been a 70% increase in adolescent Mental Illness in the last 25 years. Teenagers are in the grip of a mental health crisis and yet the NHS is stretched to capacity in its ability to support young people and their families. If you or someone in your family is struggling with their mental health it is important to seek support: research shows that the earlier the intervention, the better the prognosis.

I offer a safe, supportive space for young people to explore their anxiety, depression or any issue that is troubling them or making life difficult. I offer both short-term targeted support and longer-term work, I work closely with the family of the young person (with their permission) and with other services when appropriate.
