When looking at therapy in terms of children, we think ‘Fun, Free, and Forward’.

Dealing with children can be tricky. We aim to get through to our children with utmost love and respect. Childhood and adolescence can be a stressful period, filled with various issues that cause  anxiety, stress, and persistent worry.  

Child and adolescent therapy, although very similar to adult therapy, may use several other avenues to help bring about change in thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

‘Fun’ – children are not known to turn away from fun. With this in mind, an engaging yet open ear stands key to our assessments. Using various other methods – ‘Art and Play Therapy’, for example, helps keep sessions interactive and enjoyable.

In today’s modern world, opinionated social media, peer pressure and academic stressors can take a toll on children, leading to doubt and undermining of one’s self-worth. We provide an environment that is unrestricted, and ‘Free’. Allowing our children to express themselves with the constant reminder of guaranteed confidentiality, permits for a safe and open space to share, where trust is key.

The word ‘Forward’, stands for itself. Whether it be forward thinking, or not looking back. The concept of continually looking ahead, brings about a sense of hope and encouragement, with positive results always on the horizon.

Child & Adolescent therapy is primarily focused on the proposed age group, offering emotional, social and psychological support sessions alike. Empathetic ears and a friendly environment encourages openness and comfort throughout the experience.
