Coping with life
All children will experience emotion and upset during their childhood years, but when the problem gets in the way of their everyday life, they may need some tools to help them understand and cope in certain situations.
Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy can be highly effective in helping your child overcome emotional or psychological difficulties. Areas such as anxiety, aggression, self confidence and low self-esteem, school refusal, friendship problems, fears and phobias, OCD, sleep problems, unwanted habits/thumb sucking/nail biting, bed wetting, food issues, stuttering and stammering can be addressed.
How we help
We are able to work with your child to help them achieve their goals and provide them with strategies and tools to help themselves long into the future. We give the young person an understanding of the workings of their brain appropriate to the age of the child or young adult. Therapy is fun and engaging.
What to expect
During an initial consultation with a solution-focused therapist, the focus is on creating a positive and empowering environment for the child or teen. We begin by getting to know the young person and their family, exploring their strengths, interests, and the positive aspects of their life. This helps build rapport and sets the stage for understanding what is going well, even amidst challenges. We explain the neuroscience behind their current feelings, helping the child or teen understand how their brain works in relation to stress, anxiety, or other emotional responses. Importantly, the discussion shifts to how they can start to feel better, highlighting how solution-focused therapy can help reframe thoughts and develop healthier mental patterns. The therapist outlines how follow-up sessions will work, emphasizing a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that empowers the young person to make gradual, positive changes in their thinking and behaviour. Each session is tailored to build on progress, reinforce new habits, and celebrate successes along the way.
Modern life can be challenging for some of our children; problems at school or with friends, exam pressures, social media, worries and fears about the future can all contribute to stress, anxiety and loss of self-esteem or confidence. Even very young children may be confused about their feelings of anxiety, anger or sadness.
At The Therapy Box we combine some of the very best psychotherapeutic techniques available to help children and teens overcome stress and emotional problems. We work with your child in a safe, confidential environment,
