Integrative Child Psychotherapy is a gentle and often non-directive treatment for children, young people, parents and families that can help with a wide range of behavioural and emotional difficulties.
What is child psychotherapy?
Child psychotherapy helps children and young people understand their feelings. From sadness and anger to painful or confusing feelings, it’s a beneficial therapy that can improve relationships and behaviour at home.
At Brighton and Hove Psychotherapy, we have a team of licensed child psychotherapists who are trained to help children make sense of their feelings through alternative methods like talking, playing, drawing, and more.
The main difference between child psychology and adult psychology...
Differences between child psychotherapy and adult psychotherapy are the focus and techniques used. For example, child psychotherapy addresses developmental milestones and challenges with emotional regulation, social skills, behaviour, or attachment issues. Whereas, adult psychotherapy focuses on issues like relationships, stress, work, trauma, depression, anxiety, and more.
There are also differences in the communication styles used. Child psychotherapy focuses on some non-verbal methods to help articulate emotions as well as techniques that integrate play, art, and storytelling.
