She is a supervisor for the National Centre for Supervision of Parent-Infant Relationship and a seminar leader for an infant observation course at The British Psychotherapy Foundation (BPF).
The ACP is the main professional body for psychoanalytic psychotherapists working with children and adolescents in the UK and is registered with the Professional Standards Authority. The ACP is recognised by the Department of Health for accreditation of training in Child Psychotherapy throughout the United Kingdom. She is accredited to work with infants through to young people up to the age of 25 years. The treatment can be short or long term, depending on what will be most helpful. She also offers prenatal and postnatal work, parent work, and Parent-Infant psychotherapy (0-5 years-old) who have difficulties with settling, sleeping, separation anxiety, severe long-lasting tantrum etc.
Her professional interests include infant mental health, perinatal mental health, trauma and bereavement, children in the care system and adopted children. Jennifer strongly believes that early interventions with children and young people can have a significant preventative value.
