Counselling provides adolescents with a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their feelings, behaviours, and challenges. Through one-on-one therapy, they gain clarity on difficult emotions and identify unhelpful thought patterns, fostering personal growth and a happier, more fulfilling life.
One-to-one therapy offers adolescents a safe place and time to talk to someone who won't judge them. They can benefit by making sense of things they may be finding difficult and is a way of helping them to understand themselves and their behaviours more.
My therapy model combines several approaches to support change. A client-centered approach fosters a safe, empathetic space for children and adolescents to share their experiences. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thoughts, while Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences shape behaviours. For young children, play therapy encourages emotional expression through guided play, and Theraplay uses interactive, relationship-based play to build emotional regulation, social skills, and self-confidence.
Individual counselling sessions provide a safe space for children and adolescents to express their thoughts and feelings, and develop strategies to manage challenges. Shrafeddin's Therapy is a trusted counselling practice located in Surbiton.
