Therapy for Children & Young people
We have Counsellors and Psychotherapists who specialise in working with young people and children.
During their formative years, children may encounter a variety of issues such as low self-esteem, friendship problems, anxiety, despondency, and self-harm.
Integrative child psychotherapy and counselling provides a safe and accepting environment where children can feel heard, valued, and free to explore their challenges.
This process helps children develop resilience and coping strategies as they begin to understand their emotions.
For some children, a short-term intervention (up to 12 sessions) may be effective. However, for more complex and long-standing issues, a longer-term intervention might be more appropriate.
Our Service
We offer both integrative child psychotherapy, art therapy, and music therapy with practitioners experienced in working with neurodiverse children. An initial consultation with one of our specialist child therapists will help us understand your young person's needs, ensuring they are paired with the most suitable therapist.
The consultation takes place in person at our Hove centre. We also provide a concurrent consultation for parents or carers with another psychotherapist at our practice, which can be beneficial. These sessions can be booked together.
To book an assessment, please fill in the enquiry form below, and we will contact you to arrange an initial consultation session.
About Art Therapy
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses creative activities; as a tool to support emotional expression and self-understanding. It’s important to note that children do not need to be interested in or “good at” art to benefit. The focus is not on creating artwork, but rather on using the process of making as a way to help them express thoughts and feelings that might be hard to put into words.
