Talk to Debbie.

Debbie is an experienced psychotherapist whose been practising since 2012. She qualified during her 30 years teaching in the primary sector, where she was given the opportunity to develop a specialist role supporting children with social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties. Her work focused on areas including anger management, emotional regulation, and communication, always providing children with a safe space to express themselves without judgement.
Debbie uses an integrative approach, tailoring her practice to meet the unique needs of each individual. Her approach can be described as calm, friendly, and compassionate.
Areas of support include: anxiety and stress, depression, school-related challenges, relationships, bereavement, trauma, ADHD and autism support, and anger management.

Debbie's introductory sessions are based on a person-centred approach, providing a safe, warm space to build trust. Depending on the young person's needs, other sessions might be based around the exploration of art, to help unlock deep feelings that words can't express, or mindfulness, to help build calmness and deeper self-awareness.
Techniques such as CBT may be used to examine particular mindsets and behaviours and to initiate any changes required. The integrative approach uses different tools to enable young people to gain deep insight, emotional strength, and lasting personal growth.
