Child Psychotherapist |
||
Rosepips is run by a qualified Child Psychotherapist who has trained and specialised in emotional development during infancy and in particular how babies come to develop within the relationship they have with their parent/carer.
Child Psychotherapists undergo a long and rigorous training and provide a psychoanalytical mode of treatment. This way of working is based on close observation and an understanding of both conscious and unconscious communication. They have studied extensively child development and in particular the emotional and personality development during infancy.
Whilst child psychotherapists undertake work with individual children they also engage in highly specialised work with parents and infants as well as families, parents and carers.
The long training helps us to understand and begin to give words to what an infant’s experience of the world may be and how they are beginning to understand their relationships with others.
I am a member of the Association of Child Psychotherapists and as such am bound by their rules of conduct and ethical practice. I have worked within the Health Service for over twenty years within children’s mental health services as well as in the independent sector.
We would arrange an initial consultation to establish whether together we felt that I may be of assistance. This appointment would generally last for 60 minutes and it would be decided in discussion whether a further appointment was required and/or what type of work we might undertake together.
Child Psychotherapists can undertake long term and intensive work as well as more short term focused work. It may be that we only meet once or twice or it is possible for some people to be seen for a year or more. This is entirely dependant on the individual person/family.
