Children & Adolescents Counselling.

A variety of developmental milestones define the road to adulthood. While parents get concerned about children’s growth and development, some children and adolescents experience their own worries. Counselling can help your child navigate through their difficulties, as well as teach them skills and strategies to cope with any current and future problems.

Some themes explored in therapy range from:

• fears and worries

• stress management

• test anxiety

• family separation and divorce

• social anxiety

• emotional regulation

• self-esteem and confidence

• peer friendships

• play skills

• communication skills

• social skills

• daily living skills

• executive functioning skills

Supporting young people to re-connect with their strengths and positive sense of self is the purpose of therapy. This is facilitated through a range of therapeutic approaches including: Play Therapy, Creative and Expressive Play Therapy, Autplay Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Mindfulness.

Therapy with your child is always a collaboration: from setting and reviewing therapy goals, to sharing observations, feedback, challenges and successes.

It really is walking in a journey together to achieve the best possible outcomes for your child.
