About Nessie

Nessie supports vulnerable children, young people and their families with complex mental health needs who are struggling to access support.

We provide person-centered, therapy; support and CPD accredited training.

Nessie is a voluntary sector therapy organisation that focuses on helping children and young people (0 – 25 years) thrive.

Many children and young people we support are anxious about talking to a therapist. This could be because they have experienced trauma; they may be fostered or adopted; they may be neurodivergent; or perhaps they prefer more flexible, creative approaches.

We support the mental health of children and young people in three ways:

We offer 1-1 and group therapy for children and young people
We offer training and supervision to professionals
We offer webinars and support to parents and carers.

We provide support through partnering with local schools, county councils and community organisations within Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and the surrounding counties. Parents can also reach out to us directly.

Nessie is funded to provide free support in many locations, and schools or families can also fund support directly.

Together our therapists have over 200 years of experience. We welcome diversity and have specialist Arts, trauma, SEND and LGBTQ+ therapists within our team. We recieve excellent feedback.

Our long history of working relationships with local statutory and community partners means we can effectively signpost people to the best support in your area.
