Talkzone Counselling (Nottinghamshire)

Talkzone offers free, confidential mental health support and counselling for children and young people, aged 11-25, in Bassetlaw.

These services provide a safe space to talk, and offer support for children and young people focusing on anger, low moods, confusion, anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, bullying, relationship/family breakdowns, low self-esteem, or issues around sexual orientation or gender identity.

Appointments for Counselling, Mental Health and Well-being Support and Mentoring are provided across Bassetlaw in a range of venues, we can also provide telephone and video appointments.

Talkzone also offers a monthly parents and carers group to parents/carers with a child or young person aged 0-25, with a GP registration in Bassetlaw. Your child does not need to be engaging in the service for you to access peer support.

If you are aged between 13 and 24 years old, you can contact us yourself and let us know that you would like to make a referral to Talkzone.

If you are aged under 13 then the referral will need to be made by someone over the age of 18. This could be a family member or someone from another profession or organisation: for example a doctor, support worker, teacher, social worker or anyone else that is supporting you if you have given them permission to contact us.
