Counselling for Young People and Teens
Counselling can give young people the tools to express themselves, recognise their strengths, and develop a more positive outlook. It’s not about giving advice, telling them what to do, or pushing them to meet other people’s expectations, it’s about supporting them in finding their own way.
What Can Counselling Help With?
Young people often experience strong emotions around:
- Family or step-family relationships
- School pressures and academic struggles
- Bullying (in or outside school)
- Behavioural or emotional difficulties
- Literacy or numeracy challenges
- Love, jealousy, loss, identity and more
How It Works
- A Safe, Private Space
Counselling takes place in a quiet, dedicated room free from interruptions. - Their Time, Their Pace
The young person talks about what they want to, in their own time and way. They’re never pressured to share more than they’re comfortable with. - Confidentiality
What's discussed stays private. However, I will explain before we begin that if there’s a safeguarding concern, where they or someone else may be at risk of serious harm, I may need to pass this on. - Creative Options
Sessions might include talking, play, art, lego, metaphor work (e.g. using stones or creative storytelling), drama, or a mix, depending on what feels most natural that day.
