Counselling for Adolescence

The period of Adolescence
In order to help young people effectively it is important to understand the nature of their stage in life and the developmental processes that are involved. Once we have this understanding, we can use a counselling approach that is specifically designed to parallel their developmental process and to take account of normal communication processes used by young people. By doing this, there is synchrony between the counselling process and the adolescent’s own experiences. This enables the counsellor to join appropriately with the young person to achieve a mutually beneficial working relationship.
Adolescence is the period of human development during which a young person must move from dependency to independence, autonomy and maturity. The young person moves from being part of a family group to being part of a peer group and to standing alone as an adult
We need to remember that young people are not children and they are not adults: they are in transition.
(Geldard, Kathryn. Counselling Adolescents: The Proactive Approach for Young People (p. 77). SAGE Publications. Kindle Edition)

Parents might encounter several difficulties when trying to support their adolescents such as

  • Difficulties in communicating or even getting through to them
  • Getting mostly an angry response from your adolescents
  • Difficulties in forming an agreement or compromise with the adolescents
  • My adolescent son or daughter is taking drugs or mixing with the ‘wrong’ crowd
  • My adolescent daughter has angry outbursts or seems to be withdrawn
  • Difficulties with education: problems with attendance, concentration or exam stress etc


If you are a parent and encounter any of these problems with your child, please do not hesitate to contact me for an initial chat over the phone which is free of charge.
