Open Door is a charity (and company limited by guarentee) that provides confidential counselling and psychotherapy to young people aged between 12 and 24, and a separate consultation service for parents of teenagers.
We are based in Haringey, north London and most of the young people that we see come from the boroughs of Haringey and Islington. Regrettably we no longer offer Open Door’s young people’s service to residents of other London boroughs as they do not provide funding.
Open Door's professional team are highly trained and experienced in working with young people. The therapists at Open Door can help young people feel comfortable and able to talk about themselves. Therapists adapt their approach to find a way of supporting the young person, help the young person identify the problem they need help with, and work out the best approach for Open Door to take. The psychotherapists work with a supportive psychotherapy approach and usually provide once weekly appointments.
Open Door offers short, medium and longer-term one-to-one psychotherapy at its main centre in Crouch End and also at a satellite based at The Laurels Healthy Living Centre in East Haringey. Both centres have facilities for disabled people. We offer mostly daytime appointments during weekdays and have a limited number of evening appointment times at our centre in Crouch End. Appointments at The Laurels are more restricted. Please ring us for details.
Appointments are provided free to young people under the age of 18. Young adults over the age of 18 will be asked to make an small and affordable contribution towards the cost of providing their appointments, this will be discussed with the therapist in the initial appointments. Young adults who are unable to afford a contribution will be seen without making a contribution.

Open Door also runs an innovative Parenting Teenagers Project called the PTP, which is targeted at parents of young people aged 12-21 where the parent is concerned about a teenager who will not seek and access help in their own right.
