Hello, my name is Manuela. I'm a qualified Child and Adolescent Counsellor and Parent-Child Therapist. I'm a Trainee Psychotherapist in two areas:

Child and Adolescent: Working with children and families (with children aged between 2 and 17). Sessions are held individually with the child as well as work with the parent and / or parent and child. I also work with young adults up to age 25.

Parent-Infant: This work is with parents during pregnancy and with their child (up to age 6).

As well as working in schools in South London I also have a private practice room in Bromley (BR1).

My clinical experience includes:

• Child, young person and adult bereavement

• Nurseries, primary and secondary schools

• Domestic violence

• Refugee and asylum seeker children and parents

• Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS)

• Child Protection Social Work

• Residential adult mental health

Making a referral:

It can be daunting to make contact with a Therapist and to speak about the difficulties you and your child are experiencing. The work is non-judgemental and confidential. Therapeutic work takes time and will take place at a pace you are comfortable with. Please feel free to share your queries.

Referral issues include bereavement, pregnancy loss, separation, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, emotional difficulties, relationship concerns, parenting difficulties or trauma.
