hild and Adolescent Therapy

Growing up can be both exciting and challenging, and at times, children and young people may struggle with their emotions, behaviour, or relationships. Whether they are experiencing anxiety, low mood, difficulties with self-esteem, or challenges related to neurodiversity, professional support can provide them with the tools they need to navigate life with greater confidence and resilience.

How We Can Help

We specialize in working with children, adolescents, and their families to understand and address emotional and behavioural difficulties. Our approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to each young person’s unique strengths and challenges.

We offer support for a wide range of difficulties, including:
✅ Anxiety & worries (social anxiety, generalised anxiety, phobias)
✅ Low mood & depression
✅ Self-esteem & confidence
✅ Emotional regulation & anger management
✅ Friendship & social difficulties
✅ Neurodiversity (ADHD, autism, sensory sensitivities)
✅ School-related stress & academic pressures
✅ Behavioural challenges

Our Approach

We believe that every child and adolescent deserves a safe and supportive space to explore their thoughts and feelings. Our sessions are tailored to the needs of each young person, using therapeutic approaches that are engaging, practical, and backed by research.

🔹 A collaborative and strengths-based approach – We focus on helping young people understand their emotions, build resilience, and develop skills to manage challenges effectively.
🔹 Evidence-based therapies – We draw from a range of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), adapting them to suit each child’s needs.
🔹 Parent and family involvement – Where appropriate, we work closely with parents and caregivers to ensure they feel supported and equipped to help their child.

What to Expect

1. Initial Consultation: The process begins with a consultation to discuss your concerns, explore your child’s strengths and difficulties, and determine the best therapeutic approach.
2. Therapy Sessions: Sessions are tailored to each child’s needs, using age-appropriate strategies to help them express their thoughts and feelings.
3. Ongoing Support & Strategies: We provide guidance on how to apply therapeutic techniques at home and school to support long-term wellbeing.

Creating a Safe and Supportive Space

Our goal is to create a warm, understanding, and neuroaffirmative environment where children and young people feel heard and valued. We work at their pace, using creative and interactive techniques where appropriate, to make therapy engaging and meaningful.
