Child counselling is a sort of therapy aimed at young children, teenagers, and adolescents who are suffering from one or more mental diseases. It also helps young people who have been through trauma or who live in a dysfunctional or stressful home situation. Many of the challenges these children confront are similar to those that adults face on a daily basis. The goal of child counsellors is to assist children in better interpreting the challenges they are dealing with and/or the trauma they have experienced. Child counsellors are trained in the treatment of various issues like anxiety, depression,Child Bullying, behaviour difficulties, bullying, hyperactivity, low self-esteem, self-harm, and even post traumatic symptoms

Child counsellors can also assist youngsters with learning and physical problems. They can assist children who are on the autism spectrum. 

Many child counsellors are usually qualified psychologists who have taken up a specialisation in working with children. They can also be occupational therapists and speech therapists who assist children with sensory, motor and language concerns, in addition to mental health struggles. Book an Appointment
