Age 11 - 16
Young People
Being a young person can bring pressure from school, friendships, family life, identity, confidence and the expectations of others. Davey offers a calm, confidential and non-judgemental space where young people can talk openly about whatever is on their mind, whether it feels big, small or difficult to put into words. Drawing on person-centred counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and more than 12 years’ experience supporting young people, he helps them understand their thoughts and feelings, build emotional resilience and develop practical ways to manage challenges such as anxiety, low mood, exam stress, bullying, bereavement, self-esteem and relationships. Sessions are relaxed, led at the young person’s pace and focused on helping them feel heard, supported and better equipped to move forward.
Age 16 - 25
Young Adults
Early adulthood can feel exciting and overwhelming at the same time, with changes in education, work, relationships, independence and future direction. Davey supports young adults through these transitions, offering a confidential space to explore difficult feelings, patterns of thinking and the challenges they are facing without judgement. Using a flexible blend of person-centred counselling and CBT, he can help with anxiety, low mood, stress, confidence, identity, relationships, loss and major life decisions, while providing practical tools and strategies that can be used beyond the session. Clients can expect an open, collaborative conversation shaped around their individual needs, with time to reflect, make sense of what is happening and identify manageable steps towards positive change.
Individual support
Adults
Adults may seek support for many reasons, including stress, anxiety, depression, bereavement, relationship difficulties, trauma, addiction, low confidence or simply feeling stuck. Davey provides a supportive and confidential environment in which clients can speak honestly, gain a clearer understanding of their experiences and explore what they would like to change. His person-centred and CBT-informed approach combines compassionate listening with practical strategies tailored to the individual. Sessions are collaborative and unhurried: clients can expect to be listened to without judgement, to work at a pace that feels comfortable and to leave with greater insight and useful tools for managing everyday life.
Support and guidance
Parents
Parenting can be challenging, particularly when a young person is experiencing changes in mood, behaviour, confidence, relationships or school life. Davey helps parents make sense of what may be happening and consider calm, practical ways to support their young person while also looking after their own wellbeing. With extensive experience counselling young people in secondary schools, he can offer guidance around communication, anxiety, exam stress, bullying, bereavement, self-esteem and other emotional or behavioural concerns. A session provides a respectful, non-judgemental space to talk through worries, understand different perspectives and develop realistic strategies that suit the needs of the young person and family.
Pupil-centred support
Schools
Davey works with schools (at the school premises or at an agreed meeting place) to provide accessible, compassionate support for pupils who may be struggling emotionally, socially or academically. Having spent more than a decade delivering one-to-one counselling to (circa 800 persons) and workshops in secondary school settings, he understands the pressures faced by young people and the importance of working appropriately alongside pastoral and safeguarding teams. Support can include individual counselling, mentoring and practical sessions focused on emotional resilience, anxiety, exam stress, bullying, confidence, bereavement, relationships and wellbeing. Pupils can expect a safe, approachable space where they can talk at their own pace, while schools can expect professional, pupil-centred support tailored to the setting and agreed objectives.
