Counselling for Children and Young People

Counselling support

We know that getting help when you are struggling is important, that’s where our counselling can help.

When you are struggling with your feelings, counselling can help you to process what’s going on in a safe environment. In counselling, a trained therapist or counsellor will listen to your problems and help support you understand what is causing these problems by supporting you to look at solutions to help you overcome them.
