Belvoir Park Primary School

School Counsellor

We have a school funded counsellor who is with us 3 hours per week.  The counselling service is provided by Carrie Lindsay Counselling.  Please see some information from Carrie below.

Sometimes life can be challenging for kids, whether its changes in the family, friendship/school issues, bereavement, or anxiety, amongst other things. These experiences can leave a child with a lot of big emotions that they can find hard to work through on their own, and can impact their capacity to learn and engage in school.

School-based counselling provides your child with a safe, confidential, therapeutic space to process and talk/play/draw about experiences that may be confusing, painful or difficult. This intervention can help them to rediscover their hope, build resilience, find their voice, improve their self-esteem, and in turn increase their potential for learning.

Carrie is the counsellor in Belvoir Park PS and offers counselling sessions every Thursday morning.

Carrie has many years experience as a children and young people’s counsellor, and is an accredited member of BACP.

If you feel your child would benefit from a period of counselling within school, please contact your child’s class teacher or Mrs Brown (Link Teacher) to obtain a referral form
