At Thriving Young Minds, our focus is on building a lifelong foundation for children and young people to be self-aware and confident in managing difficult thoughts, feelings and situations.
We provide counselling for children and young people aged 7-21, providing the understanding and acceptance needed to allow them to strengthen their roots and flourish in their unique way – thriving rather than just surviving.
Areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, bereavement, trauma, confidence, self-harm and family or relationship difficulties.
As client-centred therapists we believe that each young person has the ability to manage the issues they face. We create the right conditions for clients to take ownership of their situation and find ways to achieve their aims. Being trained and experienced in various counselling approaches allows us to provide the support best suited to each young person.
Being passionate about what we do means it’s really important for us to provide the right environment for our clients. Our bright, comfortable room gives us the flexibility to work in the most appropriate way and gives clients lots of choice over how they would like to work – whether it’s creatively, through play, using therapeutic resources or simply talking.
We have created a space that is suitable for all ages and we are confident that it will help clients to feel safe and nurtured.
