Note that this is not an indication of spaces, and we try our best to accommodate your chosen schools.

Counsellors on Placement provide emotional and therapeutic support to children and young people aged 4-18 in Place2Be partner schools. As an organisation that has adopted the BACP ethical framework of good practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy, counsellors working within the organisation are dedicated to improving the mental health and well-being of the children they work with.

What We Offer
  • Place2Be provides a high level of support to counsellors on placement through regular supervision, tailored training workshops, and offers a well-recognised clinical placement.
  • We provide a comprehensive induction programme and clinical supervision is undertaken at the end of each day.
  • We need you to be available for a minimum of one day per week to work in a therapeutic capacity with up to 3 children offering one-to-one counselling.
  • Placements are term time only and run for one academic year. There are opportunities for you to stay with us beyond one year.
  • You will have the opportunity to attend up to six optional workshops throughout the year, which are recognised as continuing professional development time.
  • Sessions spent with children are accepted as clinical hours towards professional accreditation, and are recognised by the BACP and UKCP.
  • A placement is an excellent stepping stone into a job opportunity and career with Place2Be, with over 2/3 of our clinical staff having previously held a Counsellor on Placement role.
  • We have places available in our projects in both primary and secondary schools nationwide.
