KYDS Counselling

We are extremely proud to have KYDS Counselling operating from our centre five days a week. KYDS are a free, local, and confidential counselling service for children and young people. KYDS is run by KYDS and not by KNC.

KYDS help young people understand, and manage, difficult issues in their lives. They do this by providing easily accessed, personalised counselling and mental health support services, family counselling, and early intervention wellbeing workshops and information events.

KYDS ensure issues such as grief, loss, family breakups, friendship problems, school and study stress, addictions, risky behaviour, anger, bullying, anxiety, depression, alcohol and drug use, body image concerns, mental health concerns, self-harm and suicidal thoughts do not overwhelm young people.
