Adolescent Counselling Session

Service Description

Person Centred Therapy for children and young people is based on the understanding that young people are capable of working through their inner distress aided by a therapeutic counsellor. Adolescents aged 8 to 17 years old will receive tailored therapeutic care which takes into account their needs and developmental capabilities. The therapist will work with the young person to reduce distress, understand and adapt difficult behaviours and process trauma. They will seek to understand what is important to you and your child in the process toward positive growth. You can expect to have consultation sessions with your therapist periodically through out the process. Our counsellor’s are able to successfully apply psychological theory and therapeutic modalities to their interpersonal approach. Our counsellor’s are able to work with a diverse range of people, culture and neurology tailoring the experience to best suit the person sitting in front of them. A play session can be anywhere between 30 and 45 minutes depending on the child’s needs. An adolescent session is 60 minutes.
