Trauma services
I feel very passionately about helping and supporting children and adults who have experienced developmental trauma. I have completed extensive continued professional development in the field of trauma, this coupled with my training in Person-Centred therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy results in me being one of the most specialised trauma therapists in the area. I work on a sessional basis for Cumbria county council providing therapy in Post-adoption and provide guidance and training for local schools. I am also a member of The international society for the study of Trauma & Dissociation. and a member of the Childhood Trauma Recovery Network
Working in private practice has given me a breadth of experience that is difficult to gain in just one service provider. I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Below are the people and organisations that have benefitted from my training.
