Children and Teenagers Mental Health Counseling

Every child is born with his or her unique temperament and style of behavior. In the face of life challenges, every child approaches and responds to adversity differently. While some of them are more resilient, some children and teenagers may be experiencing distress and interpersonal difficulties in different aspects including academia, relationships, depression, anxiety and/or social interactions.

With the use of contemporary psychological theories and/or multiple psychological treatment approved by scientific evidence, our counselors pay attention to the essential elements that make for successful counseling with children.

Establishing a safe and caring counseling environment, to support children and teenagers to adapt well to adversity, helping them define and express their thoughts and emotions, and exploring behaviors and consequences that increase their self-esteem, strengthen their resilience and improve their ability to overcome challenges and failures in their pursuit of progress. Children and teenagers can benefit greatly from counseling with someone who will listen to them and help them work through their feelings.

What do we provide? What will the process look like?

Our counselors will discuss with you and your child the tentative length and the frequency of the counseling, which will be revisited throughout the counseling, depending on your issue and therapy goals. Generally, you will have your regular psychotherapy session weekly or bi-weekly.
