As part of our wraparound pastoral care at Stowe, we have a team of therapists who support the well-being of our pupils.
Research has shown that when someone is having a hard time, talking about what they’re going through is one of the most helpful things to be able to do.
Therapy provides a safe and confidential space for someone to talk, enabling them to work through issues and explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

Our team of therapists are qualified and experienced integrative counsellors and psychotherapists, and are affiliated to one of the governing bodies and follow the Ethical Standards and Guidelines;
BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy)
BABCP (British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies)
Substantial experience in working in the school environment gives the team the knowledge and expertise to support young people facing life’s difficulties.
The dedicated team offers short and long-term support, helping to empower individuals to overcome their mental health challenges and take steps towards a more positive way of life.
A therapist is available every day Monday to Friday during Term time. From this September 2025 there has been a change to the payment structure for therapy sessions. Pupils will receive eight sessions free of charge after which time a charge of £45 per session may be applied.
“I wouldn't be where I am today without the help and support you've given me. I know I'm going to be okay."
