Compass

Compass is a school based counselling service dedicated to supporting refugees and asylum seekers aged 11 – 18.   Any young refugee or asylum seeker attending a Croydon school or college can be referred for counselling.

Counselling may be helpful for many refugees and asylum seekers, who may have witnessed traumatic events, conflict or violence before or during their journey to the UK. They are highly vulnerable to depression, post-traumatic stress, complex grief, suicide and self-harm.   We can provide a confidential space to share concerns and an opportunity for individual support.

We offer up to 6 sessions of counselling with the opportunity for supported onward referral if required.    

We may be able to provide an interpreter if this is requested by the client.
