Counselling with Children and Young People
Young people may struggle with friendships, home life, identity or just growing up.
Through Counselling I offer a compassionate and creative space where we can explore together. I draw upon Person Centred skills, CBT and creative methods.
An approach that is tailored to you
I offer a warm, conversational approach to Psychotherapy and Counselling, drawing upon different therapeutic tools and approaches to support you and your individual needs.
I offer face to face or online options for clients. Please contact me to talk about my services and arrange a consultation.
How can Counselling with Children and Young People help?
Counselling is a confidential space away from everyday life to talk and explore worries and concerns. It could be used to work out a problem, talk through a behaviour or develop ideas. Often, just having somewhere to go gives support and helps move things on when you feel stuck.
Counselling offers a space to process and imagine. This may bring relief, ideas and ease tension. It can help build identity, make sense of things and ensure young people feel heard.

What to expect
I offer face to face Counselling with Children and Young People. Sessions are for Children from 10 upwards to young people in their teens. This type of counselling is usually short-term.
Sessions are usually weekly; we can allow more space in between sessions if needed. Counselling is contracted in line with the BACP Codes of Ethics and follows their standards of practice. All contracted work involves a third party (usually a parent, relative or caregiver who holds responsibility for the child or young person).
Sessions take place at the Wonderloft premises, and there is a waiting lounge where parents can remain on site and relax with a cup of tea. There is internet access if people need to do work while waiting.
