Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist
based in Wye, Kent
I specialise in helping families, children and teens overcome Behavioural and emotional challenges.
Hi, I’m Georgia…
With seven years of experience as a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist, I offer compassionate care tailored to each individual.
My training at the world-renowned Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, known for its focus on children’s mental health, has equipped me with a deep understanding and the tools to provide effective, long-term support.
From my consulting room in Kent, I provide private therapy sessions and also serve as the lead psychotherapist at a local secondary school.
HOW CAN I HELP?
Sometimes life can be tough and worries can become too much for children, young people and the adults in their lives. A child and adolescent trained psychotherapist can listen carefully and think together with each person to help make sense of the difficulties.
Research suggests that psychotherapy has longer term effects and that even when you finish you will have a memory of your therapy and your therapist which does not go away. Psychotherapy is not just about clearing up symptoms but is concerned with overall long term development for all.

Adolescence is a difficult time and often psychological distress can be prevelent. Through a developing relationship with a therapist, young people can feel understood and find healthier ways to manage their difficulties.
