Founded by Sarah, a BACP-accredited counsellor

background in Criminology, the Centre of Change began as a grassroots response to the welfare and mental health of young people in Croydon.

From these humble, community-led roots, we have grown into a trusted local institution, championing culturally competent, trauma-informed and evidence-based counselling, psychotherapy and talking therapies to support emotional wellbeing, youth mental health, and family mental health in New Addington and beyond, including support for anxiety, depression, stress, low mood, bereavement, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions.
