Counselling and Psychotherapy for Young People

We provide low cost counselling and psychotherapy to young people from age 14 and older.

To request therapeutic help we require that you or your parent/carer make a referral by contacting Terapia’s Centre on 020 8201 6101 or by sending us an email at terapia@terapia.co.uk.

What happens next?

You will be offered an initial meeting with Terapia’s senior psychotherapist for an assessment session. This session will be offered to you within 7 days of you contacting Terapia. The assessment session will provide you with an opportunity to find out more about Terapia’s service. The psychotherapist will be there to establish whether our service is the most appropriate for you and who would be the best person to work with you.

In the unlikely event of one or both of you deciding that you need a different service, the best effort will be made to suggest an alternative. In some circumstances we may need to contact your parent or a carer. If this is the case the issue will be discussed in your assessment session.

Cost:

• The sessions with recommended trainee psychotherapists and/or a counsellor are payable at the rate of £10 per session. This is the cost of the room rental in our current premises. Sessions usually take one hour or 50 minutes.
• The Assessment session is payable at the cost of £40 per session. The session will usually take 1 hour.

All our trainees have a CRB check and are under Terapia’s supervision.

If you would like to see a counsellor or a psychotherapist privately in your area please go to Find a Practitioner here or www.ukcp.org.uk for a list of psychotherapists in your local area.

We are in the process for fundraising for a new centre which will provide the best facilities for young people, children, parents and families.

We welcome donations, even the smallest. Please donate here. We need your help!
