Child & Adolescent Counselling (Ages 5-18)

Child counselling provides a safe and nurturing environment for children and their families to explore their thoughts and feelings. Through a humanistic lens, counsellors prioritise each child's unique experiences, fostering self-awareness and personal growth.

Counselling sessions encourage open communication, allowing children to express themselves and address challenges such as anxiety, sadness, or family dynamics. This process offers gentle guidance on understanding emotional needs and building positive relationships within the family.

Using techniques like play therapy and expressive arts, children are empowered to develop coping skills and learn emotional regulation. This collaborative approach strengthens resilience, the child’s sense of self, confidence and self esteem and will allow them to apply coping skills they have practiced in therapy into their everyday life.
