Questions
Teen Counseling FAQs
Does my teenager need my permission to attend?
Yes. For anyone under 18 we ask a parent or guardian to give consent before sessions begin. You are welcome to join the first few minutes of the first session.
Will you tell me what my teen says in sessions?
Teens open up when they know their words are safe, so the details stay private. We share general progress with you, and we will always tell you if we believe your child or someone else is at risk of harm.
What if my teen does not want to come?
That is very common. The first session is a relaxed, no-pressure conversation, and most teens settle once they realise they are not in trouble. We can also speak with you first about how to introduce the idea.
