I am a MBACP Person-Centred Counsellor who provides short and long term counselling for children and young people. I have worked in schools for over 20 years, and have practised as Counsellor for over 16 years. Whilst counselling in private practise, I worked for over 17 years as a Learning Mentor and 3 years as a Pastoral Manager/Designated Safeguarding Lead. I currently work as a self-employed school Counsellor in 6 schools. I have extensive experience of supporting children with a wide range of issues. I have worked with children and young people who have experienced family issues, bereavement and loss, trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, anxiety, self harm, and anger/behavioural difficulties. I will not ask the child/young person probing questions, but will offer them a safe and non-judgemental space to allow them the opportunity to work through and explore any difficult feelings or issues that they are experiencing.
