Child and Adolescent Counselling Near You in Baner
Children and teenagers may not always have the words to explain what they are experiencing. Changes in behaviour, mood, friendships, school performance, confidence, or communication can sometimes indicate that they need additional emotional support.
At SafeMind Psychology Counselling & Wellness Studio, we offer age-appropriate counselling tailored to each child’s needs. Sessions help young people understand their emotions, build coping skills, improve communication, and feel more confident navigating challenges.
A supportive caregiver relationship and open communication can also play an important role in adolescent wellbeing

Meet the founder
Dr. Dhanashree Kadam
Founder | SafeMind Psychology Counselling Clinic | B.H.M.S | Certified Psychology Counsellor (NHCA) | Certified in CBT and Neuroplasticity | MBA in Healthcare & Hospital Management
My journey towards SafeMind has been a process of self-development. As an empath, I have always connected strongly to others and their struggles, caring to help them navigate through their difficulties. Yet, before being able to reach out to others, I needed to learn to listen to myself, set my boundaries, understand and nurture my needs. Only then have I been able to dedicate myself fully to serving others. With over ten years of experience, I have logged hundreds of hours listening to people’s struggles while endeavouring to create a judgement-free space for people to express their deepest fears and darkest thoughts. Over these 10 years, I have worked with children, teens, and adults, addressing various complex issues, including relationship and parent-child problems, ADHD, depression, emotional difficulties, and a sense of feeling stuck in one’s life. Drawing from my vast experience and employing a number of therapeutic approaches, such as CBT, DBT, EFT, NLP, and knowledge of neuroplasticity, I offer my clients a truly integrated approach to solving their problems. I believe that being in therapy should be a comfortable, safe experience, where the client is an active participant in the process rather than being told what to do by the therapist. Today, I am humbled and truly grateful for the ability to help people all around the globe, both locally, at SafeMind in Balewadi-Baner, Pune, and internationally, via online therapy. My mission with SafeMind is to help you return to yourself, to your true self!

frequently asked questions
What is child and adolescent counselling
Child and adolescent counselling provides a safe and supportive space for children and teenagers to talk about their emotions, behaviour, relationships, academic pressure, anxiety, stress, and other challenges. Counselling is adapted to the child’s age, needs, and comfort level.
At what age should a child go to counseling?
Children can start counseling as young as 3 or 4 years old, though special programs like Parent-Child Interaction Therapy can begin even earlier.
What concerns can counselling help with?
Counselling can provide support for anxiety, stress, low confidence, emotional difficulties, anger, school pressure, social challenges, behavioural concerns, family difficulties, and adjustment to life changes.
How long does therapy take?
Every child’s counseling timeline depends on presenting symptoms, severity, and personality. While we love working with our clients, our goal is not to keep kids in therapy forever; rather, we are looking to teach them lasting strategies that can aid them in future challenges. Parents play a huge part in the counseling timeline, which is why we will work closely with you to continually reinforce what your child learns in therapy.
What happens in a first therapy session?
The first session focuses on understanding your concerns, goals, and background. Your therapist will explain the process and work with you to decide next steps.
Will parents be involved in the counselling process?
Parent involvement depends on the child’s age, needs, and the nature of the concern. Where appropriate, parents may receive guidance on how to support their child outside of sessions.
How can I help my child prepare for counselling?
You can reassure your child that counselling is a safe space to talk and that they will be listened to without judgment. Avoid putting pressure on them to share everything immediately.
How can I book a child counselling appointment at SafeMind?
You can contact SafeMind to discuss your child’s concerns and learn more about the counselling options available. The team can guide you through the appointment process and help identify suitable support.
