School Counselling
We believe that all schools (Primary and Secondary) within the UK and across the globe should have a school counsellor. Children need to know that they can have access to a school counsellor, especially as they spend a lot of time within this environment.

TESTIMONIALS
‘At New City Primary School we recognise the importance of working with our children and their families to ensure they are happy and safe and ready for their learning. As part of our provision TOT has worked in the school 2 days a week since September 2018 supporting and counselling children with a range of needs. TOT has demonstrated a passion for our children's welfare and has worked tirelessly with staff and their families to ensure that the child's voice is heard and strategies are put in place to cope with the stresses that a child faces. The impact of Nicole's work has been identified in a range of cases; for example one child didn't like eating in front of his peers, this fear has now been overcome. Another child had anxieties about coming to school, again this has been overcome. Nicole has a warm, friendly and professional attitude in the school, which ensures that children feel comfortable working with her and parents and staff feel supported.’
