Other times it is subtler \u2014 a gradual withdrawal, a quietness that feels different, or a persistent sense as a parent that something is off, even if you can&#8217;t name what.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Both are valid reasons to reach out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\" style=\"text-align: center;\">At Singapore Counselling Centre, our counsellors are experienced in working with children and adolescents in ways that are age-appropriate, trauma-informed, and sensitive to the family context.

Some young people are open to the idea; others are reluctant or resistant.
