Working with children and adolescents – 1 day workshop
Introducing our unique and eclectic approach for dealing with children’s issues.
Children and adolescents are increasingly suffering from mental health issues for many different reasons. This subject is frequently discussed on radio, TV and in newspapers, and we are seeing an increasing number of children within our own practice.
Working with children and adolescents requires great care and patience and is very different from treating adults. Over the last 12 years our practice have developed a protocol specifically for working with children and adolescents.
