What is a Child Psychologist?

Psychologists use evidence-based therapies to support children, teenagers, and families in achieving positive outcomes. Depending on individual needs, a psychologist may use techniques from cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) or interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) to address mood concerns. These approaches are adapted to help make sessions practical, engaging, and relevant. Developing skills in behaviour management and emotional regulation can benefit individuals with developmental conditions. For some children, fostering problem-solving and flexible thinking can assist in improving social interactions and resilience.

Our clinicians understand that seeing a psychologist for the first time can feel overwhelming. We are committed to creating a comfortable, supportive environment and working collaboratively with families to help ensure sessions are calm and productive.

Every client is unique, and our psychologists develop personalised treatment plans tailored to their needs. We involve families to help promote meaningful improvements, including parenting strategies, communication skills, and guidance on applying learned strategies daily.

How Do Child Psychologists Help?

Psychologists apply their understanding of human behaviour, emotions, and development to support individuals with mental health, developmental, behavioural, and learning challenges. They often collaborate with professionals such as general practitioners, paediatricians, psychiatrists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, and teachers to provide comprehensive care tailored to individual needs.

Many psychologists focus on supporting children and adolescents, addressing early development and teenage years. They aim to help young people understand themselves, manage emotions, and build effective coping strategies. At Oracle Psychology, we also work with families, offering guidance on parenting approaches and improving communication within the home to foster positive growth.
