Parenting, Child & Adolescents

Supporting Young Minds and Families to Thrive

At Health Triangle, we understand that childhood and adolescence are critical stages of emotional, cognitive, and social development. We also know that parenting can be both rewarding and challenging especially when a young person is struggling with their mental health. Our team is here to support children, adolescents, and their families with compassionate, evidence-based care designed to meet their unique needs.

 

Holistic Mental Health Support for Young People

Children and adolescents experience the world differently than adults, and their mental health challenges often present in unique ways. From emotional and behavioural difficulties to more complex psychological concerns, early support can make a significant difference in a young person’s long-term wellbeing.

At Health Triangle, we provide tailored assessment, diagnosis, and therapy for a range of issues including:

  • Anxiety disorders (including separation anxiety, social anxiety, phobias)
  • Depression and mood concerns
  • Behavioural difficulties (including ADHD and oppositional behaviours)
  • School-related stress and performance anxiety
  • Friendship and peer relationship challenges
  • Bullying and self-esteem issues
  • Emotion regulation difficulties
  • Grief, trauma, and adjustment to family changes
  • Autism Spectrum support
  • Early intervention for emerging mental health conditions

 

Parenting Support and Family-Focused Interventions

We believe that empowering parents and caregivers is essential to fostering healthy development in children and adolescents. Our psychologists and therapists work collaboratively with families to build stronger relationships, improve communication, and support effective, nurturing parenting practices.

 

Our Services Include:

  • Parenting consultation and coaching
  • Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
  • Behavioural management strategies
  • Family therapy and systems-focused support
  • Psychoeducation about child and adolescent development

Tailored Services for Children and Adolescents

At Health Triangle, our approach is age-appropriate, flexible, and engaging. We provide a safe, non-judgmental space where young people can explore their thoughts and feelings and develop resilience, self-awareness, and emotional tools for life.

 

Therapeutic Approaches Include:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Mindfulness-based interventions
  • Play-based therapy for younger children
  • Social skills training
  • Emotion regulation and distress tolerance work (often adapted from DBT)

We also work in collaboration with schools, paediatricians, GPs, and other healthcare professionals to ensure integrated care that supports all aspects of a young person’s life.
