Consultations for school-age children and teenagers are held at the Positively Psychology office in Greenlane, Auckland. Prior to meeting with your child, an appointment is made with you as parents to discuss your child’s situation and to decide on the most effective and practical way forward. During sessions, younger children are often most comfortable when accompanied by a parent, who can then support them at home as they practise new strategies. A final parent session is arranged at the conclusion of your child’s sessions to discuss progress and plan ongoing support.
