Children's Counselling in Worcestershire

Children don’t always have the words to explain how they feel—but their emotions are just as important and real. Children’s counselling offers a safe, supportive space where young people can explore their thoughts and feelings in a way that feels natural to them.

Based in Worcestershire (Kidderminster, Bewdley and Worcester), I offer children’s counselling across Worcestershire, providing both in-person and online sessions in a calm, nurturing environment.

How I work:

Every child is unique, and I work gently at their pace to help them feel safe, heard, and understood. Sessions are tailored to the child’s age and needs, often using creative approaches alongside conversation.

This might include:

• Creative activities (drawing, storytelling, play)

• Gentle exploration of feelings

• Building emotional awareness

• Developing healthy coping strategies

My aim is to support children in making sense of their inner world, building confidence, and feeling more secure in themselves.

I tend to start each session with a game, UNO tends to be the favourite, and I have a variety of UNO, which the children then encourage the parents to buy to play at home, (just as a heads up, haha). I also have Jengo that has different kinds of questions to help us get to know each other. After this, the sessions are very much led by the children. Whilst it’s natural for parents and carers to want to be involved as much as they can (I know i’m a parent myself), the clients confidentiality is my main priority unless there is a safeguarding concern to then that would be discussed. If at any point it would be helpful for the parent/carer to have more involvement and attend a session together, this will be discussed on review with the child’s permission.

Children may come to counselling for many different reasons. Common areas of support include:
