Child & Adolescent Therapy in Pakistan

Helping Young Minds Feel Understood, Supported & Stronger

Every Child Has a Story Behind the Behavior.

Children and teenagers do not always have the words to explain what they are feeling. Emotional difficulties may instead appear as changes in behavior, anger, withdrawal, anxiety, academic struggles, sleep problems, low confidence, or difficulties at home and school.

I am Anjum Mehmood Siddiqui, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Psychotherapist, and Personality Analyst, providing individualized psychological support for children and adolescents in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, across Pakistan, and online where clinically appropriate.

My approach focuses on understanding the child's emotions, developmental stage, personality, environment, relationships, and individual needs rather than simply focusing on the behavior we can see.

A Therapy Approach Designed for Young People

Children and adolescents need therapy that feels safe, age-appropriate, respectful, and engaging.

The therapeutic approach is carefully tailored according to the child's age, developmental needs, concerns, personality, circumstances, and treatment goals.

Therapy May Incorporate

CBT
DBT-informed emotional regulation skills
Supportive psychotherapy
Personality-focused work
Family/relationship work
Trauma-informed approaches
We don't simply ask, “What's wrong with the child?”

We ask, “What is the child trying to communicate?”
Family Support

Working With Parents & Families

Parents are an important part of a child's psychological wellbeing.

Where appropriate, therapy may include parent guidance and family-focused discussions to help caregivers better understand emotional needs, communication patterns, boundaries, and supportive responses.

The goal is to create positive change not only during therapy sessions, but also in the child's everyday environment.
Online Psychological Support

Online Child & Adolescent Therapy

Online psychological support may be suitable for some children and adolescents, depending on their age, concerns, developmental needs, circumstances, and clinical suitability.

Online services may be available across Pakistan and, where professionally appropriate, for Pakistani families living abroad.

Understanding Comes First

Your Child Doesn't Have to Face It Alone

Sometimes a child cannot say:

“I'm anxious.”

They may simply stop talking.

Sometimes a teenager cannot say:

“I don't feel good enough.”

They may become angry or withdraw.

Behavior can be communication.

Understanding that communication is where meaningful support begins.

If you are concerned about your child's emotional wellbeing, a professional consultation can help you understand the situation and determine the most appropriate next step.
