What to Expect in Your First Session
The first session is usually held with parental figures to gather relevant collateral and developmental information. Initial sessions aim to clarify key concerns, strengths, and goals with both the adolescent and caregivers, while establishing a respectful framework and therapeutic rapport for ongoing support.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need therapy?
An adolescent may benefit from therapy if emotional or behavioural difficulties are affecting their wellbeing, relationships, or school life, such as ongoing low mood, anxiety, withdrawal, or stress. Therapy can also be helpful for teens who want to better understand themselves, develop emotional intelligence, improve coping skills, or explore their identity. It provides a safe and supportive space to reflect, build resilience, and grow toward greater confident self.
Is therapy confidential?

How many sessions will I need?
This depends on your goals and context. Some clients benefit from short-term focused work, while others choose longer-term support.
