Child Psychological Therapies & Counselling (7+)

This questionnaire provides important background information about your child's development, education, health, emotional wellbeing, family circumstances, strengths, interests and day-to-day functioning.

Please complete this questionnaire as soon as possible following booking.

This questionnaire helps us understand your child's emotional wellbeing, current concerns, strengths, goals, relationships, support needs and any challenges they may be experiencing at home, in education or within their community.

The information gathered helps ensure therapy is personalised to the needs of the child and family.

Depending on your child's age, presenting concerns and therapeutic goals, additional questionnaires may be requested to support the assessment and therapy planning process.

If additional measures are required, they will be sent separately by email. Please check your inbox, junk mail and spam folders regularly.

The first appointment provides an opportunity to understand your child's emotional wellbeing, strengths, current challenges, goals and therapeutic support needs.

Parents or carers will usually attend all or part of the initial assessment appointment. This helps ensure the therapist develops a comprehensive understanding of the child's strengths, challenges and support needs.

Following the assessment, recommendations regarding the most appropriate therapeutic approach and frequency of support will be discussed.

Therapy sessions are personalised to the individual child or young person and may draw upon a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches depending on their needs and goals.

• Confidence and self-esteem building
