Adolescence is a unique period of challenge and opportunity for positive development. Teenagers have to adapt to significant physical changes in their bodies and also to the increasing demands and expectations of society. This makes adolescence a common time for the beginning of mental health problems including anxiety, stress, self-harm, depression and eating disorders, with approximately half of all such issues originating before the age of 14.
Counselling can help adolescents to manage the difficulties of mental health problems and navigate challenges. Counselling at this early point can provide adolescents with a significant advantage for the rest of their lives. I will work hard to understand the difficulties you are having and help you to put your feelings into words. Just like with younger children, this is often achieved through creative approaches.
