Youth counselling is a collaborative process between a trained therapist and a young individual seeking support for various emotional, psychological, or behavioural challenges. At our practice, we believe in a collaborative approach that includes involving parents/caregivers, ensuring continuity of care both in and out of the session. The goal of youth counselling is to provide a safe and confidential space where the young person can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences, gain insight into their concerns, and develop coping strategies or solutions to address them. Through therapeutic techniques tailored to the individual's needs, counselling aims to promote personal growth, self-awareness, and overall well-being.
