My
Clients
Many
of my Clients come through personal recommendation.
Clients
come predominantly from five different
groups. |
|
 |
 Parents who
are seeking advice about their
son or daughter’s difficulty
with learning, behaviour, friendships,
self esteem or a combination
of these difficulties, approach
me for help. Parents may have
concerns that they wish to
address that they wish to address
about their parenting skills
or about relationships within
their family as a whole. |
|
Adults who
are seeking therapeutic help
to address difficulties such
as low
mood, depression, anxiety,
phobia, low
self esteem, social
isolation, relationship difficulties,
anger and childhood
abuse come
to see me. |
|
 Schools refer
individual pupils to me. State
funded schools have access
to a Schools Psychological
Service which may offer a range
of services including consultation
with staff, work with individuals
and groups of pupils, work
with parents, carers and other
agencies concerned for children
and young people. Some Schools
Psychological Services are
unable to always meet the demands
placed upon them and when this
is the case, a Head Teacher
or Special Educational Needs
Coordinator (SENCo) may advise
a parent to contact me about
independent work. In some cases
the school may refer a pupil
to me and fund this work themselves.
Independent
schools do not always have
access to a Schools Psychological
Service and where help
and advice is needed, the
Head
Teacher or SENCo may contact
me
or again advise a parent to do so. I have worked in independent day schools
in the North East and North
West of England and in independent
boarding schools
across the country and in Scotland. |
|
General
Practitioners, Psychiatrists & Primary
Mental Health Workers refer
children and adolescents
to me who have emotional
and/or behavioural and/or
learning difficulties.
I also receive requests
to meet with adults who
would benefit from Cognitive
Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
or Solution Focused Brief
Therapy (SFBT). |
|
Solicitors ask
me to undertake assessments
of children, young people,
adults and whole families to
assist them in Family Law,
Public Law and Personal Injury
work. Solicitors also ask me
to carry out therapeutic work
with some of their clients.
I work with a number of solicitors
firms throughout the country. |
