From Eastern Child & Adolescent Psychology's website.

• Our approach

  Sessions provide a safe, non-judgmental space where children and adolescents can express themselves freely and explore their feelings. The approach focuses on helping young people develop emotional awareness, build resilience, and learn practical coping strategies tailored to their needs. Therapists work collaboratively with clients to set achievable goals—whether that's improving communication skills, building self-esteem, or developing problem-solving abilities. Sessions celebrate progress along the way to build confidence and motivation. The service considers the sensory needs and preferences of neurodivergent clients, with no pressure for small talk or eye contact, and fidgets available during sessions.

• Working with families

  Parent and carer involvement is central to the service's work with children. The website emphasises supporting parents in developing open communication pathways with their teens, encouraging healthy routines, and modelling healthy emotional expression at home. The service provides psychological assessments and therapy for "children and their parents," indicating collaborative work with families. Parents are encouraged to contact the service with any questions or accessibility requests, and their feedback and suggestions are actively welcomed as part of creating a supportive environment.
