Frequently asked questions
What signs mean my child should see a psychologist?
Sudden changes in behaviour, school refusal, frequent anger outbursts, withdrawal from friends, sleep or appetite changes, persistent fears or a drop in school performance lasting more than a few weeks are common reasons to seek help. Trust your instinct: if something feels different about your child and it is not passing, an assessment gives clarity.
At what age can a child start seeing a psychologist?
Children can be seen from preschool age onwards. With younger children, work happens mostly through play, drawing and parent guidance rather than talking; with teenagers, sessions look more like adult therapy while still involving the family. The method is matched to the child's developmental stage, not just their age.
What happens in the first session with a child psychologist?
The first session is usually with the parents alone so you can describe your concerns freely, share developmental and school history and agree on goals. The child is then met in a relaxed way, often through play or conversation, to build trust. An assessment plan is shared with you before therapy starts.
Will I be told what my child says in therapy?
Confidentiality is explained to the child in age-appropriate terms, which is what helps them open up. Parents receive regular general feedback on progress, themes and how to support their child at home, and are always informed immediately about anything relevant to safety. Word-for-word content is not shared.
How is therapy for teenagers different from therapy for younger children?
Teenagers are usually seen individually for most of the session, with parents joining for part of it or in separate meetings. Their consent and privacy matter more, and the focus often includes identity, friendships, school pressure and mood. Child and adolescent therapy in Beylikdüzü uses play and parent guidance for younger children.
