Our counsellor will provide up to an hour on the phone for you to discuss whatever challenges you’re experiencing, offer support and listen. This can be particularly helpful when the child/young person is unsure about or doesn’t want counselling.
We are often contacted by local organisations who run projects supporting young people in the Borough. We cannot guarantee the level of support that is offered, so do contact the organisations themselves to find out if their projects might be helpful.
