Story

Young people struggling with mental health in and around Peterborough face their fears every day. Sometimes the smallest things feel like climbing Mount Everest – or walking on hot coals.

Today, emotional disorders (such as anxiety and depression) have risen among 5-15 year olds and in the UK, 1 in 6 children and young people have a probable mental health disorder.

At Young People’s Counselling Service (YPCS) we offer confidential counselling and clinical support to children and their families.
