Working with Children and Young People

Working with Young People

Sessions at The River Counselling can be tailored to the needs of the young person. I work with children aged 9 upwards, working creatively to build an equal relationship where the young person can safely explore what they want. To do this I am mindful of children's development, interests and their processing of the world. Talking therapy maybe combined with creative activities to support exploration and to build positive relationships.

I have extensive experience working with children in education and have worked supporting young people as a Childline Volunteer and and as a volunteer Counsellor at Treetops Hospice.
