About Karen Hammond
Karen Hammond is a Child-Centred Play Therapist providing one-to-one therapeutic work with children. She is a member of the British Association of Play Therapists (BAPT) and offers a range of evidence-based approaches tailored to support children's emotional and psychological wellbeing.
Play therapy gives children a safe, confidential space to explore feelings and experiences through play, which is a natural and developmentally appropriate way for them to process and communicate. Karen also provides family and systemic therapy, including Attachment-Based Family Therapy, which is individually structured to meet each family's unique needs. Additionally, she offers Therapeutic Life Story Work, which helps children and young people process and gain a clearer understanding of their history, as well as therapeutic group work.
Karen's approach is child-centred and responsive, recognising that every child has different needs. Whether working with individual children, families, or groups, she creates a therapeutic environment where young people can feel heard, supported, and understood. Her services are suitable for children and families seeking professional therapeutic support during times of change, difficulty, or emotional challenge.
If you're looking for compassionate, professional therapy for a child or family member, Karen Hammond offers experienced, accredited support designed around your specific circumstances.
