Children often express their experiences and knowledge of their world around them through play.  It can be their communication to inform others how they feel. I provide a resource-filled room of materials for your child to discover, to tell their stories and share their feelings.  Allowing children to explore and communicate with materials that are natural to their play, produces highly effective outcomes in emotional development.

A safe space for young people to share their worries and anxieties. 

Adolescence is a huge transition, a time

when there is so much to think about.

Understanding all the different parts can be helpful to taking some control and improve confidence,  self esteem and sense of self.

Parent Therapy

Do you worry you are not a good enough parent? 

My attachment based counselling offers you a space to process your own experiences of being parented and what changes you may want to make as a parent to your children.

Remote Therapy Sessions

What to expect  

In many ways, your child’s online play therapy will be surprisingly similar to what they would experience during a session in my practice. 

Ahead of your child’s session I would like to ask you to provide some typical items that might be used: 

• Paper 

• Crayons, coloured pencils and/or markers  

• Small assortment of toys

• Any art/story/music/poetry the child would like to share  


One significant difference I find with online therapy is that I can easily tailor session length and frequency to your child’s needs.  

This means that if your child would benefit from multiple sessions per week that are only 15minutes in length we can do that.  

Or perhaps your child has a 25-minute session on Monday afternoon followed by a 25-minute session on Wednesday evening.  

We can adapt this as we go in order for your child to make the best of their session.

Baby Loss & Fertility Counselling

Experiencing baby loss, fertility difficulties, or pregnancy-related trauma can be one of the most painful and isolating experiences a person or couple may face. Whether you have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, premature birth, termination for medical reasons (TFMR), pregnancy trauma, fertility challenges, or the emotional impact of a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) journey, you do not have to navigate these feelings alone.

At my private practice in , I offer specialist counselling for individuals, parents, and couples seeking a sensitive, compassionate, and understanding space to process their experiences. Every person's journey is unique, and I recognise that grief, loss, anxiety, guilt, anger, fear, and uncertainty can affect people in different ways and at different times.


Why Counselling May Help

Baby loss, fertility struggles, and birth-related trauma can have a profound emotional impact on individuals, relationships, family life, and future hopes. Counselling can provide an opportunity to:

  • Explore and process difficult emotions in a safe and supportive environment.
  • Make sense of grief and loss at your own pace.
  • Navigate the challenges of fertility treatment or uncertainty about the future.
  • Address feelings of anxiety, trauma, guilt, anger, or isolation.
  • Strengthen communication and understanding within relationships.
  • Develop coping strategies and emotional resilience.
  • Honour and remember your baby or experience in a way that feels meaningful to you.

My Approach

I provide a warm, non-judgmental, and compassionate therapeutic space where you can speak openly about your experiences and feelings. My approach is person-centred, meaning that I work alongside you with empathy, respect, and understanding, tailoring support to your individual needs and circumstances.

Drawing on my experience in supporting those affected by baby loss, fertility difficulties, pregnancy trauma, and NICU experiences, I aim to create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we can explore your thoughts and emotions, helping you process your experiences, regain a sense of balance, and move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Whether your loss or experience is recent or happened many years ago, support is available. You are welcome to bring whatever feels important to discuss, knowing that your story will be met with sensitivity, care, and compassion.

  • Anger.
  • Fear and Phobias.
  • Self Esteem and Identity.
  • Neurodiversity.
  • Difficulty making friends.
  • Grief and Loss - through separation, divorce or bereavement.

My Support Service

My 20 years of experience working therapeutically with children and young people enables me to offer effective, individualised service of well being and care. I offer counselling and parenting support for a variety of needs and provide a service in the comfort of your own home, outdoor nature walks, online or at my private practice in Barnet.   

I have delivered parenting programmes to many families over the years.  My approach is attachment /relational which means we work through your parenting style to help develop a closeness and more effective way to communicate with your child or teenager. 

How much does it cost?

Please contact me directly about costs-it is important to tailor make sessions to your particular child and family. I provide a complimentary conversation.

Contact Claire

The first step is for the parent/guardian to contact me and to have a chat about what is going on for the child or young person. This is a chance for us to chat about your worries and how counselling or parent support might help. 

This will enable me to provide you with a bespoke treatment plan for your child. The first few sessions are 'getting to know' your child. Sessions would usually be once a week. Or you the parent may have sessions with me, so I can provide you with parenting strategies.
