YOUTH COUNSELLING

Service Description

Adjustment disorders are a mental health condition in which a child has an unusually strong or long-lasting reaction to an upsetting event. The event can be anything that’s important to the child, such as a death in the family or moving to a new house or school. Children with an adjustment disorder have a hard time coping with their feelings about the event and show signs of anxiety, depression or behaviour problems. It can happen to kids and teenagers of any age and usually lasts less than six months.
