PQ Dip Trauma Counselling Children and Young People (Level 5)
I am a BACP-registered integrative counsellor dedicated to supporting children and young people aged 3 to 18 who are navigating emotional challenges. I provide a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where they can freely explore their thoughts and feelings.
I have worked as a counsellor for a local youth charity, as well as in schools as a teacher, which has given me insight into how overwhelming emotions can impact a child’s behaviour, wellbeing, and ability to thrive.
To understand the true roots of these challenges, my clinical training and post-qualification studies focussed on attachment theory, childhood neuroscience, and the early-years impact of trauma.
Because every individual is unique, I blend play, creative therapies, and traditional talk-based approaches to tailor each session to the specific needs of the child or young adult. My goal is to help them process their experiences, discover a happier self, and build lasting inner resilience.
As part of East Surrey Counselling Group, I am available on Saturdays between 9.30am and 1.30pm. Please contact me via Carol Belsey.
