About the Practice
When serious illness changes childhood, siblings and parents often need emotional support that understands the whole family system. Claire House Liverpool Hub Counselling supports Liverpool families with play-based and counselling-style emotional wellbeing support for children who need more than another conversation at the kitchen table. The focus is safer expression, stronger connection and practical understanding for the adults around the child.
Clinical Expertise
Counselling, family support, sibling support and emotional support around serious illness and bereavement
Grief, anticipatory grief, family stress, life-limiting illness, sibling distress and emotional overwhelm
Counselling and creative support can help neurodivergent siblings or children process illness and grief at their own pace
Why Work With Us?
Children’s Hospice Counselling Route: Parents can see the therapist role, membership route and safeguarding position before trusting someone with their child’s inner world.
Family and Bereavement Support: Play, creative work and counselling-style support help children communicate through action, story, art, movement and relationship when direct questions only make them close down.
Parent and School Connection: The service can help children and families process grief, uncertainty and change without having to carry it alone.
