Nurturing Mental Health and Wellbeing for Children and Families

Children's Mental Health and Wellbeing Services

Turn2Us Children's Division provides essential mental health and wellbeing services for young people aged 4 to 18 across the UK. Our dedicated Mental Health Support Team is highly experienced in delivering professional counselling, therapy, training, and workshops, both online and in person, to children, teachers, and families. We are here to support children and young people when they need it most, ensuring their mental health needs are addressed before they escalate to crisis point.

We take a holistic approach to children’s mental health, focusing on emotional wellbeing and prevention. Our services are tailored to meet the individual needs of each child and their family, and we’re proud to have achieved outstanding results through our 1-2-1 counselling sessions, group workshops, and family support. By prioritising early intervention and prevention, we help children build resilience and navigate life's challenges with confidence.

Our team of highly skilled counsellors and mental health specialists has over 30 years of combined experience. Every counsellor is fully trained and equipped with a diverse set of tools, including EFT, NLP, CBT, Mindfulness, Matrix Reimprinting, and Picture Tapping. This allows us to deliver personalised care that combines counselling, therapy, mentoring, and coaching in ways that work best for each young person.

Who We Work With

Since 2013, Turn2Us has worked closely with over 78 schools and colleges, supporting more than 33,500 children and young people. The majority of our referrals come from schools, Social Services, Family Support, Barnardo’s, and CAMHS, enabling us to work collaboratively with schools, councils, and agencies to provide long-lasting support for families facing challenges.

We offer a wide range of services tailored to the needs of schools and communities, including 1-2-1 counselling, parenting classes, teacher training, and group workshops. Additionally, we partner with larger projects funded by government or social investors, working towards impactful change on a broader scale.

At Turn2Us, we’re committed to ensuring that every child, young person, and family receives the support they need to thrive emotionally and mentally. Together, we can create a brighter future for the next generation.

Our Mission Statement

Our commitment remains clear: to support, to uplift, and to create lasting, positive change. We are dedicated to nurturing the growth and well-being of those we work with, as we work toward brighter futures for all.

"I just wanted to take a moment to personally thank you for all your hard work and commitment over the past two years supporting the DLP project and the schools involved. Your input has been consistently thoughtful, compassionate, and impactful, and I know it’s been truly appreciated by staff and students alike." Sean, DLP Project Lead, Greenwood Academy

"It is clear to see that some of our hard to engage children have really benefit from the support they have received this academic year. We have had so much positive feedback from the students and overall I would say that there is significant positive impact." Andrew, Tile Cross

"As I reflect on how far I’ve come, I’m reminded that I wouldn’t be here — truly wouldn’t — without the support I received from you both during the darkest times of my life. When I felt like there was no way forward, no hope, you both were there. Even when it might have seemed easier to give up on me, you didn’t. You stayed. You believed. You gave me reasons to keep fighting when I couldn’t find them myself." Anna, Truly Outstanding Student

As a  master practitioner and well experienced successful mind wellness specialist nonetheless I always appreciate the value of learning something new to add to my arsenal of tools to improve first of all my life and then those of who I serve.
Suzanne and her training did not let me down. It was so refreshing to meet wonderful experience people who were willing to learn more like myself and to enjoy the fruits of a fully  comprehensive three day course.
Fantastic value well worth the money!
I highly recommend this course.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Advanced EFT training.
I felt very comfortable almost immediately due to Suzane’s lovely manner.  Suzanne was very positive so even though I didn’t feel confident initially I quickly grew in my confidence.

The demos were great and really helpful. I loved that we got to learn a bit, practise and learn then the next bit.

I found that my confidence and competence grew quickly so that by Sunday I was working with both confidence and competence
Just loved the training! Thank you Suzanne

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have just finished my EFT Advanced practitioner training. The course was well delivered and clearly explained.

Suzanne created a welcoming group with a space fostered to feel safe and comfortable enough to explore personal experiences and ask questions. Plenty of opportunities to practice and ask for reassurance and clarification.

Personally I have been able to work through some of my own personal negative beliefs.
Professionally I am sure this will help many of my current and future clients and I have the confidence to take this forward.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have now completed the Advanced EFT Training and the Trauma Release Training and both experiences have been amazing. I love the way Suzanne creates a safe informal atmosphere, even online, making her so approachable whilst at the same time provides so much content, knowledge and expertise. There are so many opportunities to practice, ask questions and feedback allowing for a great learning experience.

Highlights are always exploring the different techniques and tools, getting the opportunity to observe a demonstration in real time before trying it out yourself. With EFT there is always something for everything - the gift that keeps on giving.

You are left with excitement and eager to put into practice what you have learned. The materials provided are easy to understand and instructive so you can revisit this as often as you need.

Couldn't recommend highly enough.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very interesting and enlightening training, building on my experience and knowledge. Suzie was again just amazing in how she delivers the session. The practical demonstrations are very emotional and she deals with the scenarios and situations in a perfect way so the whole group can feel the process. I would definitely recommend this and other training courses delivered by TT Training

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed EFT training with Suzanne and it was one of the most powerful and beautifully held learning experiences I’ve had.

Suzanne creates such a warm, safe and grounded environment. Her passion for EFT is clear, but what really stands out is how compassionately and steadily she holds the group, especially when vulnerability arises.

The training had a great balance of theory and practice, with rich group sharing, plenty of space for questions, and thorough handouts to support continued learning.

The regression tapping process was profoundly impactful for me and brought a real sense of closure and integration. I would wholeheartedly recommend this training to anyone wanting to deepen their understanding of EFT in a well-structured and deeply supportive space.
