Gold Coast Psychologist
Works with Children, Teenagers and Adults



Children – Primary aged (10 years and older)

 

Gold Coast Psychologist, Anthony Engel provides counselling services for children aged 10 years and older. He has many years experience working with children and their families. He is friendly, approachable and well-liked by children of all ages and backgrounds.

A child will often ‘act out’ when they perceive that something is wrong or when they feel insecure, stressed, frightened or unhappy. Acting out can also include: wanting attention, self-esteem issues, wanting to be powerful and noticed, and so on. These may include: fighting, throwing tantrums, making up stories, lying, withdrawal, and other anti-social behaviours.

Anthony works closely with families, schools and other support agencies working with children.

Some of the issues he works with are:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Anger
  • Bullying
  • Stress
  • Adjustments
  • Self-esteem and Shyness
  • Loneliness
  • Sleep problems
  • Academic struggles
  • Lying
  • Loss and grief
  • Divorce and separation
  • Blended families
  • Interpersonal relationships
  • Social Difficulties and fitting in.
  • Dealing with rejection
  • Defiant behaviour

When children lack skills for managing anger it can lead to aggressive behaviour.

Anthony Engel, a child psychologist on the Gold Coast, uses art therapy, mindfulness, age-appropriate cognitive behavioural therapy and other approaches to teach children appropriate coping strategies and to better manage their personal situations.
