Counselling for Children

Growing up should be fun but sometimes children need a little extra support when life becomes challenging. Counselling for children can help.

Counselling allows kids to explore their feelings and the issues that are troubling them. In doing so they can better understand their emotions, their place in the world and how they can take on challenges in future.

Child counselling – or therapy as it is also known – provides the individual with a chance to discuss any problems they are experiencing with a counsellor. In the counselling session, they can talk freely about issues with friends, family or teachers that are upsetting them.

Children’s counselling focuses on providing a non-judgmental, safe and confidential space, where a child can talk freely about concerns ranging from anxiety and low self-esteem to emotional regulation, relationships, parental separation and bullying.

The end goal is always the same: to help children develop techniques to help them cope with life’s ups and downs.
