About Listing
We offer counselling/psychotherapy to young people aged 11-21, and therapeutic play to children aged 5-11. Counselling offers a safe and confidential space to talk freely and openly to someone who is not a family member or a friend. For children we ask for a commitment to 12 sessions; for young people we advise a commitment to 12 sessions, and an understanding they may require up to a maximum of 24 sessions.

Noah’s Ark Centre offers a high-quality counselling service, provided by weekly face-to-face sessions at the Centre in Ovenden, Halifax. Because of the pandemic some of our clients transferred to having telephone or video sessions. Going forward we envisage remote counselling will be an exceptional option for those with specific needs where physical access may be an issue.
We are a major training provider of placements for student counsellors from universities and colleges all around West Yorkshire. Hence a large proportion of our counsellors are undertaking a counselling placement with us during their training. We will always endeavour to match clients with suitably experienced counsellors.
