Therapy is a wide ranging discipline providing a variety of levels of support covering many areas of an individual’s life. Part of therapy can be to provide support while facing the changes and difficulties in life and also with setting and achieving personal or career goals and working within relationships. Impartial emotional support is always part of the support offered. It is always the client who chooses and controls the level and type of support provided.

A number of our therapists have specific experience of working with children and adolescents in both their schools and their homes and therefore we are able to cater for younger clients. The work is different to adult therapy and requires specific training and experience. It is usual for therapy to be in the absence of parents as clients, even young clients, prefer an amount of privacy in order to express themselves. Parents can be present at the request of the client, however, this is unusual. Confidentiality is key to the Therapist client relationship and therefore any disclosures to parents will first have to be agreed to by the client. Confidentiality is only limited by legal obligation where the Therapist will be obliged to break confidentiality to the appropriate services. For details of which Therapists have this type of training and experience please read the individual Therapist Profiles or Contact Us directly.

No. If you feel that medication is the solution you seek then you need to arrange to see your General Practitioner. However, please be aware that a pharmaceutical solution may not provide the help that you need especially with respect to antidepressants. We suggest that before taking any medical interventions you have a full physiological examination to establish organic causation.
