About
Deborah Lane, MA, BSc (hons)
I am a Masters qualified Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist working with children (aged 4+), adolescents and their families. I am professionally registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy as an Accredited Member (MBACP (Accred.)) which means that I have met higher standards of knowledge, experience and development. I adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice.
​
In addition to holding a Masters level qualification in child and adolescent therapy, I have over 10 years of experience of working with children and young people in educational, therapeutic and charitable settings, including working for Step by Step, a Mindworks Surrey CAMHS delivery partner.
In addition to private practice, I visit children in local schools, as well as managing and delivering a counselling service in a local Independent School and working as an Associate with the Integrative Centre for OCD
