Dr Krystal-Jane Verasammy

Chartered Psychologist

“Dr Krystal-Jane Verasammy is the founding director of Therapeutic Spaces Counselling and Psychotherapy, a mental health service dedicated to providing evidence-base psychological talk therapy to young people, and adults to support their mental health needs, and play therapy to children below the age of eleven.”

About me

As a Chartered Psychologist, I provide evidence-based psychological talk therapy for young people and adults. I help them explore concerns and develop strategies to support their mental health. For children under eleven, I guide them through play therapy. This gentle approach helps children express feelings and navigate challenges. My goal is to offer a grounded, collaborative space, focusing on practical, understandable steps for well-being.

Approach

Within Therapeutic Spaces I create a steady, predictable pace where we map small, achievable steps together and check progress each session. In-person meetings in Trincity and secure online sessions in English are organised to suit family rhythms and school or work schedules. Sessions blend careful assessment with hands-on activities for younger children and focused, strategy-driven conversation for adolescents and adults so ideas are tested between visits. People who want clear, manageable ways to move forward tend to find this style helpful.
