TACKLING CHILDREN’S DEPRESSION THROUGH THERAPY
www.tanuchoksi.in
MAKING AN APPROACHABLE ENVIRONMENT 1. There are many incidents in the past where children feel the need to talk to their parents but since both parents are out working or busy in their own schedules, do not have time to hear the children out. 2. However, it is important for the parents and the guardians to remember that create a very approachable environment for the kids to come and talk to them.

TAKING A THERAPIST’S HELP 1. These days, somethings in the world have gone ugly and kids too are becoming a target of such brutality. 2. They may not tell you, but they might be going through immense trouble and pressure. 3. This pressure must be the pressure to stay ahead in competition, peer pressure to do something, or pressure to just be the best. 4. A practicing family therapist in Mumbai would any day recommend parents and teachers to not kill the innocence of the child by pressurizing him or her into anything. www.tanuchoksi.in
WATCH OUT FOR SYMPTOMS 1. As a parent/guardian, it is important that you look out for symptoms that show traits of depression in the child. 2. If the child suddenly starts being aloof (which is not their characteristic) or starts behaving in a way that is not very much like their usual one, then it is important that you talk to them and find out what’s wrong.

THE OPTION OF CHILD THERAPY 1. If they assure you everything is fine, but does not really seem like it, then it is best that you seek help from a therapist for child therapy. 2. As qualified practitioners, they know what and how they need to talk to the kids, make them comfortable and get all the information about what’s troubling them out of them.
