Bring your child or adolescent to discuss and explore any area of their life with a counsellor over regular sessions of 60 minutes each. Sessions are available face to face in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata — or online by video call, making it easier for families to access support regardless of location.

What is Child & Adolescent Counselling?

Is your child struggling in school? Feeling stressed or anxious? Facing difficulties with friendships? Causing tension at home? Unsure about what to do after school? A trained child and adolescent counsellor helps children and teenagers across three key areas:

• Personal and social development
• Academic development
• Career development

The primary goal is to reduce barriers to your child’s growth — whether that means managing anxiety, building social skills, developing healthy friendships, setting goals, or addressing bullying. Counselling provides a safe and confidential environment for your child to speak openly with a caring, professional counsellor.

What can Child & Adolescent Counselling help with?

Children and teenagers are brought for counselling for a wide range of concerns, including:

• Exam stress and board exam anxiety
• Academic pressure and performance anxiety
• Low self-esteem and self-confidence
• Anxiety, fear and excessive worry
• Depression and low mood
• Anger and behavioural difficulties
• Bullying — at school or online
• Digital addiction and excessive screen time
• Peer pressure and social difficulties
• Career confusion and subject selection
• Family conflict and adjustment issues
• Grief and loss

How can a counsellor help my child?

Through individual sessions, children and teenagers have the opportunity to explore their feelings, aspirations and development across the following areas:

Personal & Social

• Stress and anxiety management
• Building self-knowledge — values, attitudes and beliefs
• Increasing self-awareness and self-confidence
• Developing interpersonal and communication skills
• Making and maintaining healthy friendships
• Coping with peer pressure

Academic

• Goal setting and motivation
• Study skills for improved learning
• Improving academic self-concept
• Balancing studies, activities, leisure and family

Career

• Career awareness and exploration
• Identifying personal strengths, interests and abilities
• Setting career goals
• Employment-readiness skills — resume writing, interview preparation

Like adult counselling, child and adolescent counselling offers a safe, non-threatening and confidential environment where your child can feel heard, understood and accepted.
