Mentoring & Therapeutic Support (Schools & Community)

Children and young people aged 8–25 who are:

• Struggling emotionally or behaviourally

• At risk of exclusion or disengagement

• Experiencing identity, confidence or belonging difficulties

• Impacted by trauma, racism or instability

Rooted Wisdom provides one-to-one mentoring and therapeutic support in schools and community settings. Our approach is relational, consistent and trauma-informed — meeting young people where they are, without judgement.

This is not punitive mentoring.

It is about trust, safety, and growth.

Focus areas include:

• Emotional literacy and regulation

• Identity, confidence and self-esteem

• Behavioural reflection and accountability

• School engagement and motivation

• Healthy relationships and boundaries

• Community-based 1:1 support

• Short-term or longer-term interventions

• Collaborative work with schools and families

Outcomes
