Difficulties for children and young people
What can we do...
Children and young people, as mentioned in the video above, face a variety of difficulties. The impact of these difficulties can be lifelong and profound. Some of these difficulties are happenstance, or unforeseeable. Death, disease, family breakdown, difficult experiences, family mental health difficulties, all of these impact and effect children and young people. Rather than allowing these difficulties to become entrenched our counsellors are here to use their skills and knowledge to help those children and young people.
By giving children and young people a safe place to explore and express themselves research tells us it gives them the ability to engage better in education, to have more satisfying life experiences, to lower their stress levels, to raise self esteem, and if the video above is accurate potentially even to have a longer life.
