Counselling for Children and Young People
PROFESSIONAL COUNSELLOR
ABOUT MY SERVICES
Hi, I'm Dee.
I'm a fully qualified and experienced counsellor who specialises in working with children and young people. I am based in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire.
I imagine you are reading this because you, or your child or young person may be finding things difficult right now.
I recognise how hard it can be for children to understand or explain what is going on for them, and how they often express this struggle through their behaviour. I understand how challenging this can be for those around them.I also recognise how challenging adolescence can be for those experiencing it, and those supporting a young person through it. Relationships, friendships, the pressure of school work and exams, the difficulty of being in a changing body, and the pressure to work out who you are and where you fit in the world, can be overwhelming. Sometimes, no matter how well children and young people get on with their parents, they may find it difficult to talk to them. This is where I can help.
I have a Foundation Degree in Therapeutic Counselling and Psychotherapy, a First Class Honours Degree in Applied Social Sciences, and have completed an Advanced Specialist Training Course, accredited by the National Counselling Society, in Counselling Children and Young People.
I have over severn years of experience in counselling children and young people through my work with Talk Well and currently hold the position of school counsellor at a girls grammar school.
I am passionate about promoting positive mental health and emotional wellbeing in the children and young people I work with.
Within my practice I use creative approaches to gently explore and help the child or young person express what may be going on for them, and together identify what is preventing them from moving forward. My practice provides a non-judgemental space in which a child or young person can feel accepted, valued, and truly heard.
