Counselling
Our Approach
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step.
At Calming Minds Clinic, we provide a calm, compassionate space where you or your child can feel safe, heard, and understood.
Our counselling work is grounded in psychological therapies and tailored to each individual’s needs.
We understand how difficult it can be to reach out for support. Our approach is calm, compassionate, and centred on helping you or your child feel safe, supported, and understood.
We take a gentle, person-centred approach, allowing time for trust to build and for individuals to explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace.
Specialist Support
We support children, young people, and adults with a range of emotional and psychological needs, including:
Anxiety and emotional wellbeing
Self-esteem and confidence
Grief and loss
Trauma and life experiences
ARFID and related challenges
Internalised presentations, where difficulties may be less visible but deeply felt
For adults, we also specialise in working with complex trauma, including complex PTSD, and supporting individuals in understanding and processing the impact of earlier life experiences.
Getting Started
Counselling can be accessed as a standalone service or alongside assessment work where appropriate.
If you would like to explore counselling support, we would be happy to talk through your needs.
