Therapy for Children & Adolescents in Durham

Children and teenagers face unique emotional and behavioural challenges that differ from adults. Issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, grief, or difficulties with friends and family can impact their wellbeing, learning, and confidence.

Here at Newcastle Psychologist & Counselling, our specialist child counsellors in Durham and child psychologists in Durham work with young people from early childhood to adolescence, to help them navigate these difficulties.

We also support parents and caregivers in understanding and managing behaviours at home, school, or in social settings.
