Meet our Primary School Counsellor, Laura Jones:

• BSc (Hons) Psychology with Counselling – The Open University
• Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling – Bolton College

I am excited to introduce myself to you as the new Primary School Counsellor. Having previously worked in the UK, China and Thailand, I have vast experience of providing Art, Play and Talking Therapies to students and families from many nationalities and presenting with an array of challenges. 

I look forward to providing mental health awareness and strategies to the whole community through sharing resources, workshops and one-to-one and group therapy sessions. 

Outside of school I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, writing, yoga and travelling to different countries, so far, I have been to ’32 and counting’.
