Counselling or ‘talk therapy’ provides a safe space to discuss issues that are affecting a young person’s wellbeing. Counsellors work with children/adolescents and parents to explore areas that are causing concern or difficulties in a collaborative, supportive, and non-judgemental way. Counselling sessions help children and adolescents to get a better understanding of themselves, learn healthy coping strategies, and develop intrinsic motivation to make changes. The counsellor’s approach is tailored to the individual and may include talking, playing, art and/or creative activities. Issues suitable for counselling include:
- Alcohol/Drugs
- Anger
- Anxiety/Panic Attacks
- Bereavement
- Bullying
- Confidence/Self-esteem/Identity
- Family Problems
- Illness
- Learning differences
- Mental Health
- Physical Health
- Relationships
- Separation/Divorce
- Stress
- Transitions
