Free Parent Counselling Sessions

We have a small number of free counselling sessions available for parents who may just need a little extra support.

Life can feel a lot sometimes, running a family, juggling everything, holding it all together. You don’t have to do it alone.

These sessions are:
• Fully confidential
• A space just for you
• Open to talk about anything (not just child-related)

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just need someone to talk to, this is for you.

We’re thrilled to announce that four more amazing teens have officially completed our Rise and Thrive Resilience Programme, a huge milestone made possible thanks to the incredible support from BBC Children in Need.

These young people have shown strength, determination, and a willingness to grow, and we couldn’t be prouder of everything they’ve achieved. 💛

A massive well done to each of them, this is just the beginning of their journey, and we’re honoured to be part of it.

Thank you, BBC Children in Need, for helping us continue empowering young people to build confidence, resilience, and brighter futures.

✨ Together, we rise. Together, we thrive. ✨

Another fabulous Dungeons & Dragons game night! 🎲✨

Our teens have had so much fun!!

Thanks to the amazing support of BBC Children in Need, we’ve been able to give local teens a safe, fun space to connect, be creative, and build confidence.

These evenings are about more than rolling dice, they’re about teamwork, imagination, problem-solving, and giving teens a place where they feel included, heard, and supported. 💛

A huge thank you to BBC Children in Need for making this possible, and to all the teens who bring energy, creativity, and courage to every session. You make it truly special!

We couldn’t be more thrilled with how our Dungeons & Dragons game nights have taken off! 🎲✨
Thanks to the generous support of BBC Children in Need, we’ve been able to create a safe, fun space for local teens to connect, build confidence, and escape the stresses of everyday life.

These evenings aren’t just about rolling dice, they’re about teamwork, imagination, problem-solving, and most importantly, giving teens a place where they feel heard, included, and supported.

A huge thank you to BBC Children in Need for helping us make these nights possible, and to all the teens who bring so much energy and creativity to every session! 💛

Sometimes the best way to understand our feelings is to let them flow straight from the mind to the page. 🎨💛

Recently, we asked our teens to take a problem they wanted a solution to, close their eyes, and draw using their non-dominant hand. At first, the pages looked like random squiggles, but when outlined in black and coloured in, something amazing happened.

Patterns, shapes, and images emerged that reflected how our teens wanted to feel. Some wanted to feel fierce like a dragon, others playful like a dog, some wanted the courage of climbing mountains, swimming freely like a fish, or flowing through life unapologetically.

This exercise gives teens a way to visualise their struggles, express themselves, and connect with their emotions in a safe and creative way.

We are so proud of their courage, imagination, and insight. 💛

Today we want to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to Reuse Littleborough for choosing to support Teen Lives Matter. 💙✨

Because of their kindness, more young people in our community will have access to the support they desperately need, a listening ear, a safe space, and the chance to rebuild their strength when life feels too heavy.

At Teen Lives Matter, we believe every teenager deserves to feel happy and have hope.

We help young people who are struggling with anxiety, low mood, stress, family pressures or feeling lost. Through:
🌟 1-2-1 therapy and counselling
🌟 Empowerment and resilience coaching
🌟 Workshops that build confidence, calm and emotional wellbeing

…we walk beside them until they feel steadier, stronger and ready to believe in themselves again.

We see breakthroughs every day, a smile returning, a weight lifting, a young person realising they are capable of a brighter future. And thanks to Reuse Littleborough, even more teens will have that chance.

If you know a young person who needs support, please reach out.
