I am also an Inner Child Journey Practitioner, Sandplay therapist and therapeutic play practitioner. I support parents and organisations to help the children in their care flourish through introspection, self nurturing and a deep awareness.
I provide non-judgemental expert support to parents, childcare professionals and other organisations working with children, wanting to raise compassionate, resilient and intrinsically motivated children ready to embrace their adulthood. My support is attachment focused and trauma informed.
