Learning to cope with life
Childhood can be tricky to navigate
🌿 My Space Counselling – Children’s Counselling in Cornwall (Q&A)
What is My Space Counselling - Children and Young People?
My Space Counselling provides specialised and compassionate children’s counselling services in Cornwall, supporting children and young people to overcome trauma, manage emotions, and build resilience. Sessions are personalised and nurturing, offering a safe space where every child feels heard and supported.
How can counselling help my child?
Counselling helps children and young people in Cornwall understand and manage challenges such as anxiety, trauma, behavioural issues, or school-related stress. Through supportive sessions, children learn to break down overwhelming problems, develop healthy coping strategies, and improve self-esteem and confidence.
Why is counselling important for children and young people?
It can be difficult for children to talk openly with parents or family about their worries. Counselling gives them a confidential and safe environment to share their thoughts and feelings. This helps them build trust, feel understood, and gain emotional tools to navigate everyday life more positively.
What makes My Space Counselling unique in Cornwall?
I hold postgraduate qualifications in Special Needs and have many years of experience working with children who have ADHD, ASD, and a range of emotional and behavioural needs. I understand the challenges children face in school, social, and family settings, and tailor every session to meet their individual needs.
Do you offer Play Therapy in Cornwall?
Yes. I hold a Postgraduate Qualification in Play Therapy, offering creative, play-based sessions that help children express feelings they may struggle to put into words. Play Therapy is an effective approach for emotional healing and personal growth, suitable for children and even adults.
How does Play Therapy help children?
Through creative expression and imaginative play, children can explore emotions, reduce anxiety, and process difficult experiences safely. Play Therapy promotes emotional regulation, communication, and self-awareness, all within a fun, supportive, and age-appropriate environment.
