Empathy and Understanding for Every Journey
Counselling for children, teens and adults.
About Me
Welcome to Jennifer Child Counselling. I look forward to working in partenership with you and offering a safe therapeutic space where you can navigate through your lifes journey.
You might be feeling overwhelmed with the demands of everyday life, struggling with family relationships or searching for something different to help break out of unhelpful patterns.
My approach is always client-centered and personal to you. Sometimes we will focus on the here and now and at other times we might think about how past events are impacting on how you are feeling. Along with traditional talking therapy I also have an interest in working creatively bringing in working with art, symbols and imagery if this is something that you might like to try. I have extensive experience working with adults, children and teenagers and those with special educational needs, in the public, private and school sectors.

Working with children and teens
Maybe your child is feeling overwhelmed with demands from school, social media and peers. They might be withdrawing from friends and family and losing interest in activities. Big emotions such as anger and anxiety might be taking over and might be impacting school and family life. Worries and fears can lead to the avoidance of certain people or places and feelings of hopelessness.
I will work with your child or teen creatively using art, play alongside talking therapy to help them express their emotions, rebuild relationships and develop coping skills.
30 minute sessions are available for younger children at £25

How can I help?
Every now and then each of us need a safe, neutral space to explore our thoughts and feelings. I provide a safe and non-judgmental place where you can feel comfortable in expressing your thoughts and emotions and where together we can navigate life's challenges. You will be invited to share your concerns, and I will listen very carefully without making judgements or offering any easy answers.Together we will make better sense of your experiences and I will support you to uncover meanings and recognise patterns, providing you with greater self-awareness.
