Care for teenagers aged 12 to 17.

When families come

Families come to us about low mood, anxiety, changes in sleep or eating, difficulty concentrating at school, or a hard year after a move between countries or schools. The first consultation is where we work that out together.

The first consultation

• Time with a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist who works with teenagers.
• Time with parent and teenager together, and time with your teenager alone.
• Questions about what has been happening, development and school, family and physical health.
• A written plan at the end: what the clinician recommends, how many sessions, what it will cost, and how parents will be involved.

What care can include

• Assessment, including for ADHD, anxiety and low mood.
• Individual therapy adapted for teenagers, such as CBT or ACT. Your clinician will tell you which approach they are using and why.
• Sessions with parents, on their own or with your teenager.
• Psychiatric care. If medication is considered, a psychiatrist discusses it with you and your teenager together, prescribes it, and reviews it in person.

What parents are told

Teenagers speak more openly when they know their sessions are private. At the start, your clinician agrees with you both what will be shared with parents.

You will always know the plan and how things are going, and you will be told straight away if there is any concern for your teenager's safety. What your teenager says in session stays private unless they agree to share it.

Consent

A parent or legal guardian gives consent for care for anyone under 18. We also ask for your teenager's own agreement and explain the plan to them directly.

Language and fees

In English, Bahasa Indonesia or both. Your first consultation is Rp 1,500,000 for our founding group of clients (regular fee Rp 2,000,000), and you'll know the cost of anything further before you begin.
