Child or Adolescent Issues
Celia Yeung
Counsellor/Therapist, B.A., B.Ed., MC (Counselling), CCC
Is your child needing support in managing big emotions or behaviours? Is your child having challenges with their self-esteem, connecting with others or managing school expectations? I have extensive experience providing counselling services and teaching children and adolescents with complex social emotional and learning needs. I can help your child explore different challenges that they are facing at a pace that is comfortable for them. When relevant and with parental/caregivers' consent, I may integrate different modalities, for example, use cognitive-behavioural strategies, expressive arts, mindfulness activities and/or sensory tools to support your child in managing their emotions more effectively and improve their overall well-being. Sessions are tailored to your child's individual needs, circumstances and goals. Please email or call if you have any questions, to book a free 20 minute phone consultation or to book an initial session.

Child and adolescent issues reveal the profound impact of early experiences on emotional development and behaviour. From the tender moments of infancy, the foundation of attachment is laid, shaping the blueprint for future relationships and self-perception. Trauma, whether overt or subtle, can disrupt this delicate balance, casting shadows that linger into adolescence and beyond. Child and adolescent issues emerge as a reflection of unmet needs and relational ruptures. From anxiety and depression to behavioural challenges and self-esteem issues, each struggle speaks volumes about the depth of emotional wounds and the longing for connection. Therapy offers a sanctuary for healing, providing a space to explore the complexities of attachment dynamics and process the echoes of trauma.
By nurturing secure attachments and fostering resilience, children and adolescents can rewrite their narratives, reclaiming a sense of agency and self-worth. Through supportive interventions and empathetic care, they can navigate the rocky terrain of adolescence with greater confidence and emotional regulation. In this journey of growth and discovery, the bonds of attachment become a guiding light, illuminating the path toward healing and wholeness.
