What is Child Counseling?

Child Counseling is an emotional support modality that provides children with a safe space to express their feelings and learn how to cope with emotional and behavioral challenges. Unlike other therapies, Counseling focuses on promoting healthy emotional development through active listening and guidance.

History of Counseling

Counseling, as we know it today, has deep roots in humanistic psychology, developed over the 20th century. This approach was heavily influenced by the work of Carl Rogers, who believed in the importance of a therapeutic environment that is empathetic and non-directive to promote personal growth. Over the decades, Counseling has expanded globally and, although it is relatively new in Brazil, it is widely used in countries like the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom to address emotional and behavioral issues in children and adolescents.

Feedbacks

"Jaiden really enjoys the game activities with Amanda. He is slowly learning that losing a game is not the end of the world and that he doesn’t need to have a meltdown because of it. We are so grateful for what Amanda does for Jaiden and our family as a whole. He loves therapy sessions and responds well to the structure provided."

"I felt so lost and guilty for not understanding what was happening with my son. He was always anxious, struggled to connect with other children, and I didn’t know how to help him. Since we started therapy with Amanda, everything has changed. He’s more confident, can express his feelings, and our connection at home has greatly improved. She didn’t just help my son; she also taught us, as parents, how to handle things more calmly and empathetically. I’m so grateful for everything!"
