Child or Adolescent Issues
Berry Didier Nibogora - Bilingual CBT therapist @ CMAP Health
Counsellor/Therapist, RP(Q), CCPA, LLM
Children and adolescents are different human beings for which tools for adults do not work. Equally, they are not a homogeneous group and while some may be more visual and audio oriented; others may be more conversational. While some like light and informal settings, others may prefer a focused conversation in a structured environment. Depending on their developmental stage, they have needs and priorities that as helper we need to have an understanding of for us to connect, build a working alliance and help them not only buy into therapy, but also gain from and look forward to it. Finding their currency is finding their values and working out goals that align with what they value the most. Regardless of their age, they need to feel seen, heard and valued. Autonomy, relatedness and competence are the basic psychological needs that the human species strive for all life long.
