What to expect:
Guide for Parents, Guardians, and Carers

We understand that seeking support is an important decision, and you may have questions about how the process works. Our goal is to create a supportive and collaborative environment for you and the young person in your care.

Initial Consultation

The first session is a consultation for parents and carers. This gives you the opportunity to share your concerns, the young person’s history, and your goals for therapy in a confidential and supportive space. It also allows us to plan the best approach before they attend.

Working Together

Supporting a young person in therapy works best when parents and carers are involved. We recommend regular check-ins to discuss progress, strategies, and ways to support them at home.

Child Sessions

Therapy sessions are tailored to age, needs, and personality:

For younger children, parents and carers may be invited to join part or all of the session to support engagement and learning.

For older children and adolescents, sessions are typically one-on-one to help them feel comfortable and independent. Parents and carers are welcome to wait in the waiting room during this time.

A Safe and Supportive Space

We aim to create a space where the young person in your care feels safe, respected, and understood. Building trust is an important part of the process, and this may take time.

Confidentiality

The young person’s privacy is respected. We will share general updates and guidance with you, while also maintaining their trust. Any limits to confidentiality will be clearly explained at the beginning.

Progress and Communication

Every young person is different. We will regularly review progress with you and adjust the approach as needed. Open communication between the therapist and parents and carers is encouraged throughout the process.
