Rosemary Hawksford

I have availability online until November when I will also offer in person sessions at the Quaker Meeting House, Friargate, in central York.

I have a holistic approach with a focus on relationship, between aspects of the individual, the therapeutic relationship and wider context.

I work with family relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, psychotic episodes.

I use creative methods with an emphasis on exploration and collaboration.

My core training is as a Biographical Counsellor.

This is an approach that has grown out of Anthroposophy and is integrative.  I am informed by many modalities, primarily Gestalt and Jungian.

I am a fully qualified and registered therapist with the Â鶹ԭ´´, having additional training in child and adolescent psychotherapy and experience of working in education from kindergarten to university.

I abide by the Â鶹ԭ´´ ethical framework , monthly supervision, CPD and enhanced DBS.

Please contact me initially by sending an email or filling in the Â鶹ԭ´´ form on this page.

We can then arrange an exploratory free phone call for you to talk through priorities, ask questions etc and take your time to see if it feels right to take the next step and set up sessions.

I have availability for sessions from November, which will be in a Kindergarten room at York Steiner School, Fulford Cross, York.

Before that please contact me online to explore setting up in person sessions from November.

My practice in York focuses on young people from kindergarten age to adulthood.

From November I plan to use a kindergarten room  at York Steiner School.   These are beautifully set up for play and exploration for the young child.  They are also a very sympathetic environment for older children and young people having the facility for sand tray work, which is a very effective way of working with any age.

My approach with children and young people has an emphasis on  hand work,  using painting and drawing, colour and clay.

We can then arrange a free exploratory phone call for us to get to know each other a little.  Time for you to talk through priorities, ask questions, tell me about yourself or your child if they are under 16.

Then take your time to see if it feels right to set up sessions (which can be either long term or short term).
