Place2Be

Place2Be is a children and young people's mental health charity providing counselling, mental health support, and training in UK schools. Our tried and tested model is backed by research.

We believe that no child or young person should not have to face mental health problems alone. We are committed to helping children and young people with their mental health, and the need for our services grows daily.

Our approach to children’s and young people's mental health is to intervene early to prevent life-long mental health issues. We do this by:

  • Providing support early, spotting mental health problems before they develop and helping children and young people cope with challenges throughout their lives.
  • Using an effective therapeutic approach backed by research that combines several ways of working.
  • Offering a range of mental health support services, including advice and support for families and school staff, to build resilience and raise awareness of mental health across the whole school community.
  • Providing support early

Place2Be is a pioneer in early intervention. We help schools understand and identify mental health problems, enable children and young people to focus on learning and give them tools to cope with challenges throughout their lives.
