“I feel more positive and have become confident in lifes challenges.”

 
 

What is School-based counselling?

Therapy is delivered by one of our fully-qualified psychotherapists and takes place at the child's school or sometimes over the telephone.

 

What to expect

You will be referred by your school and will have an initial consultation with the therapist where you will discuss what you want to work on.

Each session lasts just under an hour.

The work continues until you feel ready to end the sessions, but generally our clients tell us they have experienced positive changes within 10 sessions.

 

Benefits

Improvements in:

  • resilience

  • social and emotional wellbeing

  • self-esteem and self-confidence

  • family relationships

  • interaction with peers and adults

  • ability to make positive choices

 

How to get a referral

Our counsellors currently work in a number of schools across the two boroughs. If you are a teacher and interested in a counsellor working within your school, please email team@wlac.org.uk

I’m a Canadian living in the United Kingdom - London to be exact. I’m a business person with an eye for modern design. I’m a customer marketer who thinks like a customer. I’m a design thinker who also happens to be a designer.

I’ve worked at senior marketing levels in large corporations like American Express and Sky TV. I’ve worked agency side, leading digital client accounts. I’ve been part of several start-ups, sat on Angel Investing teams and run my own design and print studio.

In 2021, I started Ascender Creative to help small businesses with big plans build their online credibility and create better customer connections. I do this by taping into my 20+ years of business experience mixing it with a strong customer focus and a big dose of creativity.
