About the Practice
When serious illness changes family life, children and siblings need support that understands fear as well as care. Charlie House Aberdeen Children and Family Support supports Aberdeen 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.
