MiD Mediation & Counselling – Counselling for children

Supported by BBC Children in Need, MiD is a charity that specialises in helping children and young adults aged between 4-18 years of age, going through a parent’s divorce and separation. Parental separation and divorce can be a confusing situation for young adults and children, as they may find themselves in the middle of the separation and disputes. This can lead to children having a heightened feeling of sadness or anger and create anxiety, leading to problems at home or at school.

Counselling offers children the time, space and security to discuss their true feelings, make sense of the feelings and come to terms with their parent’s separation with a qualified counsellor who will not criticise or judge and will aim to boost self-esteem.
