Counsellor, MA, MBACP

I offer integrative
child
and young people's counselling and therapeutic
child
and teenage support. All our
children
and young people sometimes go through phases where not everything is going to plan. There might have been a bereavement, exam stress, bullying or sudden life changes have had an impact on their self esteem. Your might be concerned because your
child
has recently become angry, anxious, withdrawn, a bit more challenging or has developed difficulties in school. Sometimes they also struggle to find good friends, put themselves at risk or their physical health becomes affected.
The EmPOWERed Mind - Nicola Greenwood
Counsellor, MBACP
Verified
I offer a safe, confidential space for a
child
or young person to explore their experiences.
A young person may reach out to a counsellor when they want to change something in their lives, have a deeper understanding of their thoughts or gain an understanding of self. Perhaps you are a parent or carer that is worried about their
child
and looking for support for them.
Children
and young people often find it difficult to express their thoughts and feelings and being open and honest with parents, caregivers and other adults may be difficult for various reasons. A
child
or young person may hold back from sharing their feelings freely through concern of the extra burden they feel may be added to significant others.
