Common Statements

If these sound familiar, it’s time to talk.

Early Childhood Years:

Parent:
“OMG, I am pregnant! It's not planned and I don't know I feel about it.  I need to talk to someone, but I don't want anyone to know until I have figured this out for myself.”

“My child’s temper tantrums really upset me and I don’t seem to be able to manage her behavior”

speech.gif

Teacher / Carer:
“I suspect a child has a learning difficulty and think a formal assessment would really assist this child in getting the right support.”

“I would like some strategies to deal with disruptive behaviour”



speech.gif

School Years:

Parent:
“My children fight constantly! I have heard about sibling rivalry but this is ridiculous”

“My child was recently excluded from a party. She has become withdrawn. How can I help her manage her friendships?”

speech.gif

Teacher / Carer:
“One of my students seems very timid.  I have tried boosting her self-esteem, but wonder if she would benefit from individual counselling?”

“I would like to refer a child who has attended our Anti-bullying program but there has been no change in behavior.”

Adolescent Years:

Parent:
“My child doesn’t talk to me, but I know something is wrong.  Maybe if she spoke to a professional….”

“My child seems to be so anxious at exams that I fear it affects her performance”

“My child just doesn’t seem to know or be interested in his future”

speech.gif

Teacher / Carer:
“One of my students has come to me with a problem and I don’t feel qualified to help, so I would like to refer him to counselling.”

“We would like to supplement our current support strategies and include a stress management program for our year 10’s”

Life Events (across the ages):

Parent:
“No-one told me parenting would be this hard.  I hate the depressed, angry, stressed, anxious person I have become.  I need help!"

“My son has recently been diagnosed with Aspergers' Syndrome.  I recognise many of his traits in myself and need to talk to someone about how to manage my mental health as well as his."

Teacher / Carer:
I would like to refer a child who has had a sudden and unexplained change in demeanor in the classroom.
