Tea of Therapy partners with schools across England, supports families, and empowers counsellors — creating a wraparound wellbeing ecosystem for every child.
Wellbeing for every child
Trusted by schools across England
"Every young person deserves a safe space long before things reach breaking point."
Tea of Therapy is a specialist children's mental health organisation working directly within schools across England. We embed our practitioners into school communities — building trusted relationships with students, staff, and families so that support is always close at hand.
Founded on the belief that early intervention changes lives, we combine evidence-based therapeutic approaches with a genuine, human-centred touch. We don't just deliver sessions — we become part of the school fabric.

"Tea of Therapy didn't just place a counsellor — they changed our entire school culture around mental health. Students who never would have sought help now walk up to our counsellor in the corridor. The difference is remarkable."
"My daughter was really struggling and I didn't know where to turn. Within 48 hours of filling in the form, we had a match. Three months later she's a completely different child — confident, happy, communicating. I cannot thank Tea of Therapy enough."
"Working with Tea of Therapy is unlike any other school counselling role I've had. The peer supervision, the support from the team, the genuine care for practitioners — it makes you a better counsellor. Highly recommend to any qualified therapist."
