Counselling Young People From Age 13

In my work with

young people, I integrate psychodynamic thinking with a more proactive, approach. Proactive strategies, can help to develop the skills and insights necessary to navigate life's challenges effectively. This may include creative strategies to help think about how you are feeling, but sessions are collaborative and client led to ensure we are focussing on what you want to think about, in a way that works for you.

As a qualified children's and young person's counsellor, I specialize in providing support to young people. My approach is rooted in empathy, understanding, and a commitment to fostering the emotional well-being of every young person I work with. I recognize that each young person has a unique story and set of needs, which is why my practice is highly individualized, ensuring that every client feels seen, heard, and valued. My goal is to support young people in overcoming challenges, building resilience, and achieving their full potential.

Whether you're dealing with anxiety, low mood, bullying, family difficulties, or the pressures of school, counselling offers a safe and supportive space to explore what’s going on for you. You may also be thinking about your sexuality or gender—something that can feel confusing, isolating, or overwhelming, especially when you're surrounded by other people's expectations or opinions. Whatever you're facing, this is a calm, non-judgemental space where you can speak freely and be heard.

I understand that finding the words for how you feel isn’t always easy. That’s why we’ll work together in a way that feels right for you—helping you make sense of your emotions, find ways to cope, and begin to build resilience.

Beyond just tackling what’s right in front of us, I believe it’s crucial to empower you with knowledge about mental health and well-being. I'll help you understand the signs and symptoms of common mental health issues, think about the importance of self-care, and encourage you to reach out for help if you're struggling. By learning about these things, you’ll be better equipped to recognize and address any issues on your own.
