latest news


	Depressed youngsters "need the therapy of talk rather than pills" The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has recently reported that children with depression are too often given pills rather than “talking therapy”. It says that children with moderate to severe depression should be offered talking therapy first, but there is usually a lengthy wait for counselling on the NHS. Consequently, up to 50,000 children a year are prescribed antidepressants in the UK. We offer counselling for children at our Therapy Centre and we are experienced at helping children and young people with this problem. For more on this subject see our Advice and Information page on Depression or “Ask the Experts”.
