60-minutes Google Meet Session

Child Counselling

Support for your child, and practical guidance for you.

In short

Child counselling helps children and teenagers manage anxiety, anger, school difficulties, low confidence and family change, with parents actively involved. Ami Thaker offers 60-minute online sessions, combining direct work with the child and parent guidance.

When to consider child counselling

You do not need every one of these, and you do not need to be in crisis to start. If two or three feel familiar, counselling is likely to help.

  • Sudden change in mood, sleep, appetite or behaviour lasting more than a few weeks
  • School refusal, frequent stomach aches or headaches on school mornings
  • Excessive worry, clinginess or fear of separation
  • Anger outbursts, aggression or defiance beyond the usual for their age
  • Withdrawal from friends, activities or family
  • A sharp drop in academic performance or concentration
  • Bullying, exclusion or difficulty making friends
  • Reaction to a family change — separation, relocation, a new sibling, a death or illness
  • Self-harm, talk of not wanting to be alive, or disordered eating (seek help promptly)
