Counselling For Schools

Primary and secondary schools are well positioned to provide pupils with access to therapeutic counselling, especially when there are long waiting lists for support and often charities offer a limited number of sessions. As a counsellor who specialises in working with children and young people, I'm passionate about providing accessible therapeutic support for children where they can access it most - at school. I understand that many young people find it difficult to access therapeutic services outside of school due to barriers such as transport. My aim is to partner with you to support the wellbeing of children and young people who would benefit from accessible, on-site counselling. If your school is looking for a qualified therapeutic counsellor, please get in touch to discuss how I can support your pupils. dominique@cc-therapy.co.uk
