Understanding Child & Adolescent Therapy
Children and teenagers face unique psychological challenges — from school pressure and peer relationships to behavioural concerns and developmental differences. Early, skilled support can make a profound difference to a child's emotional well-being, confidence, and long-term mental health.
What to look out for
Persistent worry, fears, or school refusal
Behavioural outbursts or emotional dysregulation
Withdrawal from friends or family
Declining academic performance
Sleep difficulties or nightmares
Low self-esteem or negative self-talk
Developmental concerns (speech, social skills, attention)
Difficulty adjusting to change (new school, family changes)
