| Welcome to Restart Counselling |
I offer child counselling, child therapy and adult counselling in East London. |
| About me |
Zoe Hawton is a fully qualified counsellor with extensive additional training in the fields of sexual abuse, art and play therapy and child therapy. She has worked for two major charities for the last five years doing specialist work with children and adults who have experienced mental health difficulties, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) following sexual abuse or trauma, as well as private work.
I am a member of the British Association for Counseling and Psychotherapy, The British Association of Art Therapists (associate) and the European Society for Trauma and Dissociation.
My office is located inside an industrial building amongst other business units making it private and more discrete to access. A fifty minute session ranges from £25 - £40. |
| Counselling East London Adults |
I work with adults using a non judgmental, humanistic approach (click here to go to what person centred means) For people wanting a solution focused approach I can also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help stabilize issues like anxiety.
If requested Creative Therapy techniques can be utilized to work through or name difficult feelings alongside the traditional one to one talking approach. |
| Child Counselling / Child Therapy |
| I deliver one-to-one child and young people’s counseling, play therapy, Children's Accelerated Trauma Treatment (CAAT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) interventions; made easier with use of proven play and art therapy techniques in our dedicated play-therapy room in Central Stratford, East London.
Children use art and play as a way to communicate and a method of expression that gives their lives a narrative. Children sometimes lack the words with which to describe their thoughts and feelings - so play and art can help a trained therapist to help them process difficult life events. Play and art therapy can help children begin to explore and talk about difficult things more openly. |
