Support when you’re not sure what your child needs
At Cherry Tree Therapy Centre in Henley-on-Thames, we support children and young people who may be struggling, even when it’s hard to put into words what’s going on.
As a parent, you might have noticed changes, more anxiety, emotional outbursts, withdrawal, school difficulties, or a sense that something isn’t quite right. Often, parents arrive feeling unsure whether counselling is needed, or what kind of support would help.
You don’t have to work that out on your own.
We’ll take the time to understand what’s been happening and help you think about the most appropriate next step for your child.
Children and young people express themselves in different ways.
Some may want to talk. Others may communicate through play, creativity, or behaviour. Our therapists work flexibly, adapting to your child’s age, development, and individual needs.
This might include:
What matters most is creating a space where your child feels safe enough to be themselves.
We offer a calm, supportive space where children and young people can express themselves in ways that feel natural to them. Sessions are shaped around your child’s age, personality, and way of communicating, whether that’s through play, creativity, or talking.
Everything is gently paced, with no pressure to open up before they’re ready, and where appropriate, we can include parent check-ins, so support continues beyond the therapy room.
Parents often notice changes such as increased anxiety, emotional outbursts, withdrawal, difficulties at school, or behaviour that feels out of character. You don’t need to be certain; we’re happy to talk things through with you.
Parental involvement is handled sensitively and depends on your child’s age and needs. We’ll discuss this with you and agree what feels most supportive.
Fees vary depending on the therapist and approach, typically ranging from £50–£110 per session. Some therapists offer concessions, so please let us know your budget.
Yes. Confidentiality is an important part of therapy, particularly for teenagers. We’ll explain clearly how confidentiality works and when information may need to be shared for safety reasons.
Yes. All child and adolescent counsellors working at Cherry Tree Therapy Centre are appropriately DBS checked and insured.
That can happen, and it’s okay to talk about it. Finding the right fit is important, especially for children and young people. If something doesn’t feel quite right, we can talk it through with you and help you think about what might work better, including finding a different therapist if needed.
We have a carefully selected team, which means there isn’t just one “right” approach. You’re welcome to explore below, or we can talk things through with you and help guide you towards the kind of support that feels right for your child.
