Hello, my name is Kelly and I enjoy counselling children & young people. I use creative techniques to build a deep, understanding and empathetic relationship with children and young people. This supports them in processing feelings and experiences. I have experience in supporting children struggling with emotions, confidence, grief/loss, trauma, anxiety, self esteem and school avoidance. I am a qualified Play & Art Therapist and hold a Diploma of Counselling (from Australia). I have experience working as a children's counsellor and school counsellor.
I can offer creative interventions and utilise play and art therapy techniques. With the use of mediums such as art, clay, sand, or music the individual can creatively explore their inner world.
For adolescents, a combination of creativity and talking is used to support expression. During sessions, children can make choices, process their experiences, and build confidence and self-acceptance. I want to support my clients in overcoming barriers and increase their wellbeing, whilst incorporating an element of fun in our work whenever possible.
