INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND PROFESSIONALS
We have a team of counsellors specifically trained to work one to one with primary age children, adolescents and young people who are struggling with their life experience. We provide a supportive place at times of crisis where they can safely express themselves and be heard and understood. The process of counselling can support the young people in reflection, possible decision making and finding their own resources to cope with the challenges facing them.
