Child and Teenage Counselling is one of the services we offer at The Psych Professionals. Our qualified, trained and professional psychologists have experience counselling younger people for a variety of issues, including:
- ADD and ADHD
- anxiety
- depression
- trauma
- abuse (including sexual abuse).
As a parent you may be hesitant to send your child or teenager to counselling, but remember that many other young people have benefitted greatly from speaking to a psychologist. Regardless of the challenges faced by your child, counselling will help them to move through whatever issues are currently plaguing them, as well as teach them skills and strategies to cope with any current and future problems. Many children and teenagers who have received counselling have gone on to live much happier and healthier lives.
At The Psych Professionals we also have support programs for parents of children or teenagers in counselling, such as the Triple P program (Positive Parenting Program) and 1-2-3 Magic.
Counselling for Teenagers
Teenagers go through a lot of physical and emotional growth over a number of years, and sometimes the transition to adulthood is not a smooth one. Many parents wonder if their teenager is simply going through the usual set of difficulties faced by kids of that age, or whether there are larger, more serious problems at play—and it’s important to be able to tell the difference.
