Children and Adults

Hello, I’m Lindsay,

I am a person-centred psychotherapist working with adults who may appear to be coping on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, stuck, or out of alignment with themselves.

Many people come to therapy at a point where continuing as they are no longer feels sustainable. This might show up as dissatisfaction in work or relationships, or a sense that something needs to change, even if it is not yet clear what that is. It can also feel overwhelming, with different pressures building up at once and no obvious place to begin.

I offer a calm and supportive space where you can slow down and begin to make sense of what is happening beneath the surface. We work at a pace that allows for reflection and depth, focusing on what feels most important to you.

At times, this may include exploring past experiences and how these might still be influencing the way you think, feel, and relate to yourself and others in the present.

Alongside developing insight, we also pay attention to how this understanding begins to shape your decisions, boundaries, and sense of direction over time. This work can feel challenging at times, but often leads to greater clarity and a more grounded way of moving forward.

My Approach

I work in a person-centred way, which means our sessions are led by your needs and experiences. Together, we can explore whatever feels important to you, whether that’s overwhelming feelings, painful memories, or simply wanting space to reflect.

I won’t push you into areas you’re not ready for. Instead, I’ll offer gentle guidance, support, and curiosity as you move at your own pace.

Creative Approaches

While most sessions are talking therapy, I may sometimes draw on creative methods, such as art, writing, or mindfulness, if this feels useful for you. These approaches aren’t about skill or performance. They’re simply different ways of exploring feelings that can be hard to put into words.

Working with Children

Alongside my work with adults, I have extensive experience supporting children in school and private settings. I’ve worked with issues such as anxiety, low mood, school avoidance, autism, bereavement, parental separation, and emotional regulation.

Child-centred creative therapy provides a safe space for children to express themselves through play and other non-verbal approaches, while building confidence, resilience, and emotional understanding. Parents often notice positive changes in their child’s communication, relationships, and ability to cope with challenges.

I can provide support in the following areas:

• Children: Anxiety, low mood, autism, school avoidance, bereavement, life transitions.

• Trauma & Loss: Bereavement, sexual abuse.

• Emotional Wellbeing: Low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, self-harm, suicidal thoughts.

• Life Transitions: Relationship changes, expat adjustment, university or work stress, major life decisions.

• Health & Wellbeing: Adjusting to or living with long-term health conditions, navigating the emotional impact of illness or treatment, and finding motivation for positive lifestyle changes.

• Identity & Meaning: LGBTQIA+ experiences, relationships, and questions of purpose or direction.

Fees & Availability

• Adults (in person or online): £100 per 60-minute session
• Children (in person): £110 per session

For child therapy, sessions include regular parent check-ins (typically every 5 sessions), offering space to reflect on your child’s progress and how best to support them between sessions.

I offer a complimentary initial phone or online consultation (up to 30 minutes), giving us space to explore what you’re looking for and whether working together feels right.
