Confidential help for young people at Magherafelt High School, Counselling is a way of helping you with different kids of personal problems.

It allows you to talk to someone who can help and support you about your feelings and to help you make sense of them

It is there to support you and to help you make choices and changes in your life.

Talking is important and sometimes it is easier to discuss your problems with someone who is not a member of your family, a friend or a teacher.

Counselling is private and confidential, unless you or someone else involved is in any kind of danger.

Counselling can and does help to make situations better and to stop situations getting worseIf you feel that your life at home, in school or outside is getting difficult then counselling may be of help to you.

Counselling is voluntary. You can stop it at any time.
