Child Counselling

 

Many young children can experience a number of issues in their lives that can have an impact on their mental health. 

You may notice your child begin to withdraw, act out at home and/or at school, fall behind academically or complain of having no friends!

When working with children a therapist needs to consider the child's development and capacity to process their world. Typically a play based approach to working with children therapeutically is adopted as play is the natural language for children. 

​

Some of the common childhood issues and disorders therapy can assist with include:

• Childhood anxiety and depression

• Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder

• Oppositional Defiant Disorder

• Challenging behaviours

• Low self esteem and confidence

• Separation and attachment difficulties

• Grief and Loss​
