Counsellor

 My name is Pippa and I am the school Counsellor. I will be in your school on a Thursday morning.

Counselling is talking to someone in confidence about the things that worry or upset us. It is my job to listen to the pupils and help them to sort out their worries. By talking, listening and using creative interventions we can see things differently, understand our options and make different choices.

Issues that can be helped by counselling include;

• family difficulties
• bereavement
• peer difficulties
• anxiety
• self esteem issues
• bullying
• difficulties in managing emotions
• behavioural difficulties
• trauma

I would be happy to discuss with you any questions or concerns you may have about the counselling service.
