Children and Young Peoples Counselling

Please Children and Young People section for info.

Counselling creates a safe space for your child to talk in confidence about any issues affecting their life. 

 

I use a wide range of activities and play to help children express themselves so they can explore any challenges they are facing.

 

I listen without judgment and facilitate understanding of their thoughts feelings and behaviors. 

 

Supporting your child's mental health with counselling can help them build healthy relationships. 

 

Counselling can help when; there has been a bereavement, family breakdown, difficulties with friendships, bullying, and social situations.
