Adolescent therapy


How can adolescent therapy help?

Adolescence is a developmental phase and a period of change that is of critical importance. How this period of upheaval is navigated can have implications for the rest of an individual’s life.

By working with an experienced adolescent therapist, the young person can describe and explore problematic areas such as conflict within the family, how this affects them in terms of identity, stress, self harm, sexual feelings, bullying and relating to others. Adolescent counselling aims to work with the young person to build trust and explore then validate feelings and emotions to develop communication skills, improve self-esteem and make more life enhancing choices.

Parental / guardian involvement

Individual counselling or psychotherapy with adolescents in London can be combined with some meetings with the parent(s) or guardian(s), and/or family therapy sessions, depending on the circumstances.
