Child or Adolescent Issues
Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Children and teens react to stress or trauma in a variety of ways. School grades might drop. The child could procrastinate, have memory problems, or become distracted, self-critical, perfectionist, irritable, depressed, anxious, or violent. They might sleep too much or too little, have headaches or stomach problems, disordered eating, panic attacks or develop habits like hair-pulling or biting their nails. Teens might be sullen and uncommunicative and turn to potentially addictive behaviours like drinking or drugs, video games or pornography, to manage their stress. They may also turn to influencers and may take on new and disturbing belief systems.
If the child or teen is worried about their own behaviour or ability to manage complex situations, and is looking for help, then therapy offers a chance to learn more appropriate coping skills to use in daily life.
At the first session, I will listen to your concerns and those of your child to get an overview of the situation. For younger kids, it is often not necessary to explain in detail that they are going for "therapy." You could simply say that they will be having a relaxed and quiet time in which they will listen to stories and use their imagination to solve their problems.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
If left untreated, issues from and in childhood and adolescence can stay with us into adulthood, often we need to re-visit these and see how we can work with them to resolve them. This is also for parents and siblings of the 'child' or 'adolescent' who is showing the behaviours difficulties but might well be part of a more challenging system, often a family system.
