Every girl deserves a new dawn

Guidance and Counselling

counsellingpsycho-social supporthealingtrauma

Caring, confidential support for girls recovering from FGM, early marriage and the challenges of young motherhood.

Healing takes time, and no girl should go through it alone. Our counsellors listen, support and guide.

Counselling is confidential. Girls can talk about fear, loss, anger or hope at their own pace.

Support we offer

  • One to one counselling for girls who have experienced FGM or forced marriage.
  • Group sessions where girls learn they are not alone.
  • Support for young mothers coping with stress and stigma.
  • Career and life guidance, so each girl can set her own goals.
  • Family conversations that help a girl reconnect with her roots.

Counselling runs alongside every other programme. A girl in school, in the shelter or in the skills hub can always ask to see a counsellor.
