Now supporting emotional health in schools

The Deborah Ubee Trust now offers counselling services to schools to support the emotional health and wellbeing of young people.

Factors including the COVID-19 pandemic and current cost of living crisis have increased anxiety among children and young people. We believe that counselling can make a significant difference for students experiencing stress or emotional difficulties.

The Trust’s therapists are already working with several local schools to provide one-to-one in-school counselling, meeting the children where they are.

We also recognise that staff increasingly feel overwhelmed. So we’ve developed a package of support including debrief sessions/individual one-off sessions, wellbeing groups or inset day training for staff on emotional wellbeing and trauma informed work in school.

Schools interested in the flexible support we offer can contact mandy@tdut.org for more information.
