Sarah Foster

Registered Social worker; State Registered Dramatherapist,

Sarah is based in Merseyside. She has 10 years of experience as a local authority Child Care Social Worker, including working in a fostering and adoption team, followed by 16 years of experience within tier 3 CAMHS, which has included a specialist role addressing the mental health needs of children who are fostered, adopted, and in residential care. She has extensive experience with issues relating to attachment and trauma, and has developed creative ways to engage children, young people, and their families.

Sarah has been running a Theraplay® clinic within CAMHS since certification in 2013 which she has found to be highly effective in promoting healthy functioning. Sarah is impressed by the versatility of Theraplay and its ability to overcome a child’s resistance. Using a combination of skills where necessary, Sarah is able to adapt interventions according to the child’s developmental progress.

Sarah welcomes the opportunity to use the benefits of her experience to guide others in the use of Theraplay, recognizing the positive, enduring impact that this intervention has upon children and their caregivers.
