The child is a being who, during the first years of his life, does not yet have the resources and the defenses necessary to face his environment. Extremely fragile, the confrontation with those around him and the changes he undergoes affect him, forge him and can sometimes give rise to fears, anxieties or even traumas.

When to consult?

The reasons for consultation can be many and varied. Here are just a few:

• Sleeping troubles
• Enuresis / encopresis
• Violence against others
• School anxiety and phobia
• Psychological support in the face of a disability
• Bullying
• Disorders due to parental separation
• Difficulty concentrating

Duration and frequency of sessions: 45 minutes, once or twice a week as needed.

Method: Therapy for children finds its motor in drawings, painting, games (plasticine, puzzles, board games, etc.) and of course speech.

Course of the sessions: It is during a first interview with the parents that we will set the framework for the upcoming sessions. During the following consultations, we usually meet the child alone and will organize meetings with the parents, always in the presence of the child and respecting his rhythm, his needs as well as the secrecy of what is said during the individual consultations.

With the parents' collaboration: The work with the parent (s) is just as important as that which is done with the child. Indeed, it is by supporting the parents in their reflection and their difficulties with the child, that the family will be able to find a serene functioning that would allow the development of the child.

For very young children, parent / child consultations will be possible. They may in particular lead to parental guidance. It will be a question of supporting the parent in his difficulties, of offering him the possibility of becoming actor of the changes to be made and will allow him to regain confidence in his capacities of parent.
