I am an experienced Social Worker, Trainer and qualified Psychotherapist, with a background in training on issues around mental health, children and the particular challenges of adoption.
These are some examples of the ways I can provide support to you, your child or your school:

- The design of bespoke therapeutic interventions and strategies for education staff to support adopted children in the school setting.
- Therapeutic parenting support for adopters to help them understand and manage their children’s behaviour.
- Delivery of a range of adoption specific courses including therapeutic parenting, contact and life story work, Domestic Abuse and the impact on children and self-care for adopters
- Psychotherapy and counselling service for adopters.
- I am an ASF Approved Provider and am experienced in working with families with birth children, SGOs and adopted children.
I am based in Sale, South Manchester, but work both nationally and internationally as required.
