The journey of school can be such a lonely and complex one that so many young people are struggling. 
Emotional mentoring sessions : 
Having a weekly wellbeing session can be just the solution. Research shows that having just 1 person who makes you feel heard or shows they understand can be vital in preventing mental health issues growing. 

Having years worth of experience in schools as a Head of Year, SENDCo, Safeguarding lead and Inclusion coordinator Liz has worked with so many young people to help them through the challenges which present themselves. Including anxiety issues, self harm, transition concerns, bullying , SEMH, trauma, managing diagnosis such as ASC or ADHD, performance pressure , friendship issues, relationships.

The key to successful support is about relationships and the young person feeling safe working with an adult, especially if school has become an unsafe place - either physically or psychologically. This would be the priority for any initial sessions. Once a trust relationship has been established then the needs of the young person can be ascertained and a bespoke plan of support put in place. Liz's experience means she is able to offer incidental learning opportunities and no two sessions are ever the same! 
Liz has 2 dogs who can be involved in the sessions. The impact of relaxation through being with a dog is heavily documented. 

Within these sessions we can offer:

• Play therapy
• CBT target setting approach's 
• Baking

• Outdoor sessions - dog walking in the woods.
