HT Counselling Services provides a specialist counselling service for CYP via our highly trained and skilled Counsellors.

Counselling CYP is different from counselling adults. It requires different skills and specialist knowledge of the counsellor, in order for them to establish an effective relationship with the CYP. It also requires taking into account the age of the CYP, their specific difficulties and needs, as well as their current stage of development.

Our CYP Counsellors have some amazing resources to hand that aid the work carried out to ensure it can be fun, but at the same time deal with a wide range of issues/problems.

Just a small number of sessions with our specialists can see differences in behaviour’s and aid the CYP’s ability to overcome a range of emotional health problems and other life challenges such as:

  • Abuse
  • Anger management / mood changes
  • Anxiety
  • Bullying
  • Career progression
  • Depression
  • Family changes including divorce and separation
  • Loss and bereavement
  • Parenting advice
  • Phobias, including school phobia
  • School transitioning
  • Sleep problems
  • Special education needs
  • Stress
  • Teenage issues

Our CYP Counsellors all have enhanced DBS clearance, checked annually, for working in the area of children and young people. They have vast experience of working within schools, colleges and university settings, along with CYP in private practice, both online and in-person.

Please get in touch if you’d like to find out more about our specialists and the work undertaken with CYP.

My therapist was brilliant at listening and supporting me through the counselling process. She was professional but warm and approachable and it felt very natural talking to her. I would certainly go back to see her again.

Counselling has really helped me through a difficult time after experiencing challenges. I feel the sessions have helped me get back to my old self and I am feeling much more positive about the future and my journey ahead.
~ Client
It is continuing to make a difference to me. I am still processing the ways in which Debbie supported me to begin to face things in my own way and dare to try and make decisions I needed to make, including facing my fears and not allowing them to overwhelm me.
~ Client
Emma worked so well with my son and helped him to cope so much better with a very difficult year. She listened and gave practical advice, which was just what he needed.

Exemplary - so supportive. Client centred, compassionate and attentive. Built a strong trusting relationship. Responsive to when/what I was struggling with and the emotional states I brought to sessions. I felt safe and secure very quickly.

The therapist was very professional and understanding to my situation and provided a safe space for me to express my feelings. I feel in a better place after having sessions.

As someone who had never had counselling sessions before I was sceptical if it was going to be beneficial to me, however after having some sessions with Kerry I was able to unload my thoughts which has greatly eased my situation and thoughts.

Really supportive, positive, helpful and it had a huge impact on my life. Thanks again to Klaudia, she was amazing.

Your counselling sessions really helped to get me through a difficult period and I now feel in a much better place and able to think about moving on with my life.

Thank you so much again for all the help you gave me, it gave me the ability to figure out how to fix my issues by myself, which takes a big weight off my shoulders.
~ Client
I've shared things with you that i had never shared with anyone - testament to your unconditional acceptance of me.​
~ Client
There have been some hard times in the months since we ended counselling, but I remembered the things we discussed and I got through lots of different challenges thanks to you.

Thank you so much for all your hard work and support these past two years. It is so greatly appreciated.

Counselling has helped me control anger linked to anxiety, focus in self care and helped strengthen my relationship with my children.

I'm so glad I have you to come to as a supervisor. You help me trust in my processes and I trust your judgment of them! A great big thank you! You are a real steadfast influence on my practice.
