WHAT IS CHILD PSYCHOTHERAPY?
Child Psychotherapy is a tool that helps our children to understand their emotions better and to help them control and improve how their emotions work.

As a parent or someone caring for a child, at times the challenges can be too difficult to manage without additional support. Finding the right support is what is of the highest
importance for both you and Marino Counselling.
Experienced child and adolescent therapists are trained to work with numerous issues that teenagers and children face. Even more than this sometimes we need an unbiased opinion and set of eyes to see what else can
be going on. All out adolescent therapists will work with the child’s needs and the wishes and hopes of their parents. We want to be there to help you as much as you want to be helped.

Adolescent Counselling
“Adolescence has a power and purpose much like a waterfall. We can’t stop the water from flowing, but we can learn to channel its force” – Dan Siegel
As adolescents search for identity; between not being a child but not quite yet and adult, they need more support than ever.
Brain Development
Scientists are beginning to understand that the human brain starts its own “remodelling” project beginning just before the onset of puberty, the brain starts to become more efficient by
“pruning” the number of cell bodies (Siegel calls it “specialisation”), while at the same time increasing the connections among them; it’s both a major housecleaning and a reorganisation of contents.
During the early teen years, the social-emotional circuitry of the human brain starts its own
“remodelling” project beginning just before the onset of puberty. Suddenly emotions are amplified, and teens suddenly feel their own feelings more intensely, are more sensitive to others, and have “higher highs and lower lows.”
Here at Marino Counselling we are dedicated to help your Teenager understand themselves as much as we are dedicated to helping a family understand each other better. Through empathetic counselling and evidence-based therapies, we empower young people to confront challenges, build resilience, and foster positive change. Every therapist here brings a unique specialisation, and it is of the highest importance for us to place you with the right therapist first time, depending on your individual needs and goals.
