What is child psychology?

Child psychology is a specialised field that supports children's emotional, behavioural and developmental wellbeing using age-appropriate techniques such as play therapy.

How do I know if my child needs therapy?

A sudden drop in school performance, extreme anger outbursts, sleep problems, social withdrawal, excessive anxiety or marked behavioural changes are signs that professional support may be helpful.

How are parents involved in child therapy?

Child therapy typically includes parental guidance. While the psychologist works directly with the child, parents receive support to reinforce progress at home.

Our approach to working with children

Play-based therapy

Children naturally express themselves through play. We use games, art and stories to create a safe, comfortable therapeutic space.

Parent involvement

Parents are an essential part of their child's wellbeing. We provide guidance to parents to support progress at home.

Age-appropriate methods

Our psychologists adapt their approach to suit the child's developmental stage, from early childhood through adolescence.

School liaison (if needed)

With parental consent, we can liaise with schools to coordinate support for children facing academic or social difficulties.
