Teen Counselling Manchester

Supporting Your Teen Through Exam Stress and Anxiety

Exam season can be one of the most stressful times in a teenager’s life. The pressure to perform, long hours of revision, and the fear of “not being good enough” often lead to anxiety, sleepless nights, or emotional withdrawal. As a parent, it can be difficult to watch your child struggle and not know how best to help.

At Therapy Moments, my focus is on emotional safety, inclusivity, and working alongside each young person with respect for their story. I provide counselling for teenagers and young people in Manchester, offering compassionate support to help them reconnect with balance and calm.

Experience Working With Teens in Schools

With direct experience working in schools, I understand the unique challenges teenagers face, from exam pressure and classroom expectations to peer relationships and social stress. This background allows me to adapt counselling sessions to meet your child where they are, whether they need practical coping strategies or simply a safe space to talk.

Personalised Techniques for Your Child

Every teenager is different, which is why counselling sessions are tailored to your child’s needs. Together, we explore techniques that feel natural and effective for them, such as:

• Breathing exercises to calm racing thoughts before exams.

• Visualisation techniques to build confidence and reduce panic.

• Grounding strategies to manage overwhelm during revision.

• Resilience‑building tools to help them bounce back from setbacks.

These approaches are not one‑size‑fits‑all. They are personalised, practical techniques designed to support your child’s wellbeing and help them feel more in control.

A Collaborative Approach

Counselling is not about telling teenagers what to do, it’s about working alongside them. My role is to provide a safe, non‑judgemental space where your child feels heard, respected, and supported. Together, we’ll find strategies that fit their personality and circumstances, helping them face exam season with greater calm and confidence.
