About the Practice
When a teenager’s attendance, motivation or confidence is collapsing, parents need support that understands school pressure from the inside. Counselling With Mallory Leeds supports Leeds 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.

Why Work With Us?
Specialist Teen Counselling: Parents can see the therapist role, membership route and safeguarding position before trusting someone with their child’s inner world.

SEMH and Alternative Provision Experience: 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: Therapy can help young people find safer ways to name overwhelm while adults understand what is driving avoidance.
