Children
My role is to offer support to any child with concerns or worries. This can be just a chat, or a regular drop-in session. There is also a worry jar in the playground, should children feel like they need to talk. They can write their name and class and I arrange to meet with them to discuss their worry.
I also offer Drawing and Talking Therapy targeting children that have been through difficulties or experienced trauma. This is arranged following signed permission by parents. Informally, children will often see me around school and say “I have a worry; can I talk?” to me, this is the most rewarding part of my role and I enjoy the fact that they feel comfortable to approach me.
