Hello, My Son is studying in 9th class. He is not showing much of interest in his studies, as a result he is doing horrible in exam. In fact he got red mark in 1 subject in last half yearly exam. His interest lies in gymnastics & not in study. I am working mother. I feel guilty as i can’t give time to him & his studied. His father always remains out of town due to work. There is general procedure of his school that if the student doesn’t score 75% they deny for 10th admission. I am very worried.

My 8-year old niece is quite well-behaved with me. But, when it comes to her parents, especially mom, she shows too much aggressiveness. Her mom (my younger sister) is recovering from stage 2 brain cancer,for which she is not quite active like other ‘normal’ mothers. Though she does beyond her capabilities, but certain things take time. My niece tends to ignore her or talks rudely, and is very much addicted to mobile games. She is also very much attached to our dog and whenever gets the chance, starts playing with him. She feels shy among strangers, forgets to tell about the home work given by teachers and at the last moment asks her parents that techer has told to bring this and that to school. She lacks concentration also, as per her class teacher, and tries to put blame on her friends. She is otherwise a very helpful, jolly, girl. When I try to make her read something, she shows interest, keen on Maths. But rude behavior, telling tales, lack of concentration – causing us great trouble. Please advise what to do.

The moment she sits for studies either she has to go to washroom, starts feeling thirsty & sleepy. and if that very moment we start gossiping with her she don’t feel like urge of going to washroom , her thirst is quenched and gets fully awake. She had lost interest in friends in fact there is no one in her age group whom she can call friends. For playing i am the only one who plays with her when ever i can. it is not that we force or put preassure her to get the first class grades but do ask her to get atleast above average grades . we try to counsel her that she has to study all the subject atleast till 10th and after that she can choose the subject or course of her chioce. She is losing emotional touch inspite of we are giving her a good time she used to have with us she gets bored of the things very early. i do not know what to do. can you advise and help?

Hi,

My son is 4.5 years old. (In Lower Nursery) He does not concentrate in the school C.W or H.W. Teacher tells us that he does not participate in the class and says that he is in his own Imagination world (Also Shy in Class). At Home, he is totally opposite (Very Hyper Active) He always seeks attention while doing is Home work as he always wants someone to sit with him and guide him all the way otherwise if we are not around, he don’t focus and scribbles on the paper. Though he is very intelligent but we think he is slow in picking up things as compared to other students in class.

Hi,

My son is 9 years old studying in 4th std. His teacher and other classmate complain that he is very naughty and mischievous. He is good at academics. But don’t know why teachers and students complain that he is very disturbing. He cannot concentrate on a single task for more than 15 mins. He doesn’t have any friends in his class. All students in the class maintain a distance from him. The way he communicates to parents and teachers is not so respected. Please guide me, I’m afraid that that he would continue this behavior for rest of his life.

My son is of 9 year. He is in grade 3, Academic wise he is quite good, but he has attention problem. He don’t remember any instruction given by teachers, he don’t finish his class work. He is very slow in writing. Apart at home, we have to give him repeat instruction. He is not able to play as a team with his friend & always like to roam lonely and dreaming in his own world. With every thing he do motion play, like eraser, pen or any thing which is in his hand. If you give him more than one instruction, then he will definitely forget other instruction or will do something else. I need your guidance, as he is growing. I am worried if nothing is done right now then things will not improve at later stage. Even he has reached that age that he don’t want to listen what we are saying. Pls guide.

His maths teacher insists on writing everystep in his class work. He hates it. I am afraid that this problem might develop an aversion inside the kid towards maths. How do i solve this problem? Should i talk to the teacher or persuade my son to write steps.

Hello,

We as a family Husband Wife & 2 Kids ( Son 10 yrs & Daughter 4 yrs)

As of now my son aged 10 yrs is Normal no complains. But when it comes to listening to instruction of elders, he is totally negative. Concentration is very very Poor, interested in everything but could not take it up to the mark. He was very good in studies and concentration earlier, was scoring 80% + but it has drastically come down to 10%. We have met his teachers in school several time, their comment is he is not in class mentally. We have somehow made everything available for him.
One thing I am surprised that when we asked him that would he like to go to Hostel and his answer is very positive. I am wondering if he is not happy with family 🙁 .
We have tried by all means politely, aggressively, being kid with him. I have noticed that he understands our things but later next day same thing are repeated.

He is was good in studies, skating ( got prices at State level), Swimming, Cycling etc. but now No studies, No Skating 🙁

He is also not much discussing his school things or instruction given by teachers.

I am not much worried about studies but he should understands value of our instructions & advises.

I am so worried …….Please advice.

Regards

Hello,

Good day.

I have a 7 year old daughter and she is not able to focus on one thing, everybody says that if she starts focusing she can be best in anything she does.

Hi,
I am really worried about my son, he is just 7 years and studying in class 2. He is too difficult to manage, doesn’t listen to anyone. Only when I beat him at times he’ll behave for few hours and again back to his real. In just 2 years of his schooling I’ve received so many complaints from teachers, classmates, parents that it scares me to the core thinking of his future. He lies in seconds. doesn’t do homework properly and when asked about it, he put the entire blame on the teachers saying that they did not help him noting his homework. All the time he’ll test his elder sister’s patience. Keeps fighting all time. I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to get more complaints. please suggest.

Regards,
Mrs. Rangoli Borgohain

Hi,
My son is 14 + in 9th class.

He is a reasonably intelligent child. popular with friends, in school, but generally shy with elders, however, he is a responsible child. He competes his home work in time. .I have no issues with him as a person.

But, when it comes to exams, his performance is inconsistent.. He does not perform well in exams, his results are below average.
Psychologically, he thinks he does not do well first term…we provided additional support of home tution too…surely, even with tuition support he did not do well in first term…

he has no recall problem, because, when it comes to sports or other aspects he does well …he knows all sports and even recalls how each one played, their scores and names of even American basket ball teams…
I am not sure if his low scores in exams is stress , or not comprehending questions, unable to structure his answers, or lacks 100% focus
my husband was always worried, but I would take it as passing phase…but now we cannot take it easily..
now in 9th, next year 10th crucial year…we are worried. not sure how to help him…this should not affect his confidence and self esteem.

Sir,

Your suggestions to the queries are very interesting. I have a problem. I have a five years old boy, studying in UKG. He is very talkative, he talks with himself, for this nobody is required. At 3+ age, he speak clearly, at 2 years age he walked. In the initial days he studied in the school interestingly, but since one month is is not listening to his tacher nor he is writing in class. At the same time, he writes at home. Of course I have to tell repeatedly, thereafter only he writes. Last 15 days he is suffering from fever. In the school he is also not taking any food. He is not taking any food in the morning and also in school, may be due worries of going school. In Saturday and Sunday when there is holiday he ate in the morning nicely. Her class teacher complains about his non-writing and non-eating. Kindly help me.

Dear Pallavi,
Thank you for writing in to us. Sometimes, children find it difficult to adapt to a change of schools. First standard typically involves longer hours and comparatively more discipline and work than does play group. Also, class strength etc might be greater. Perhaps your son finds this new environment intimidating or anxiety provoking. He has moved from his comfort zone and is craving for the comfort and security of his home and his parents. This might settle once he starts to feel comfortable in the new school and makes friends. You could wait for some weeks and see if things change. You could talk to him about how he finds the new school and what could be scaring him. Sharing examples of how some new situations intimidated you and how you gradually adapted to it might help. However, if he continues to remain upset and unsettled, it would be a good idea to consult with a child psychologist. A counselor will gain a detailed understanding of the situation and suggest what needs to be done ahead. If necessary, she will also use some play therapy techniques to help the child with his emotions.
Do write back to us on info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in or call us on 9833985538 if you wish to know more about the process and the fee structure of child counseling.

Thanks and Warm Regards

Dear Rajeshwari,
We understand that you must be very concerned about your daughter. You have mentioned that your daughter is careless, restless and forgetful. Does it appear as though she is unable to help her restlessness? Behaviors such as carelessness, restless can be suggestive of hyperactivity/inattention. We are sending you the link to an article that describes this in more detail, so that you can read through it and see if there are more related behaviors – Is Your Child Lazy? Or Does he have ADHD?

Apart from this, there also seem to be some emotional issues that she seems to be going through. We suggest that you see a counselor who works with children. A counselor will gain a detailed understanding of the situation and will suggest what needs to be done ahead. We are also sending you another article that might be helpful – Behavior Problems in Children – A Sign of Low Self Esteem?

Warm Regards

Hi Malini

Can you please once again email the fee structure and details as I have not received the same.

Hi Mittal,
We understand that you might be concerned about your son. From what you have written in, there seem to be some factors at play that are interfering with your son’s academics. These factors might be educational/developmental or emotional ones. A detailed psychological assessment would help to identify what these factors are, following which an intervention plan can be formulated.
If you wish to know more about the process of psychological assessment, call us on 9833985538. The enquiry timings are 11am to 7pm, Monday to Friday.

Thanks and Warm Regards

Dear Anupama,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. We understand that you are worried about your child. From what you have written in, it appears as though there are a mix of factors at play. There could be some developmental factors due to which her overall energy levels are high or her attention span is low. There might also be some factors interfering with her ability to study. This could then lead to frustration and behavioral difficulties such as aggression. We suggest you see a psychologist who works with children. A psychologist would gain a detailed understanding of the situation and would then suggest what needs to be done ahead.
You can call us on 9833985538 to enquire further about the process and the fee structure.

Thanks and Warm Regards

Dear Neena,
I’m glad the suggestions helped and that he is doing better 🙂
We have sent you an email with details about the process and the fee structure. Kindly check for an email from info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in

Dear Kashmira,
Typically, a B.A. in Psychology followed by an M.A. in Psychology is required to work as a counselor. However, we are not the right people to advise you about this, since we are not career counselors. We suggest you check with career/educational counselors about the same. You could also ask your Psychology professors if they can help with their opinion.
We wish you the best 🙂

Dear Sucurina,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. We understand how concerned you must be about your son. It does seem that there are some emotional difficulties he is dealing with. Is there any trusted adult in his environment he can talk to? Could be a family member or a friend. Someone with whom he can open up and freely express whatever is bothering him. It would also help to seek assistance from a counselor. A counselor will be able to gradually help him open up. She will also be able to help him address and resolve whatever emotional issues he is facing.

Dear Kanchan,
We understand that as a concerned parent, you must be worried about your son’s behavior. From what you have written in, it seems like some of your son’s behaviors might be a part of growing up, or experimenting. At times, since the child is attached to the mother, or because he is curious about ‘what girls do’, he or she starts to try things that the mother, or a favorite teacher might use. There also seems to be some stubbornness and oppositional behavior, which might be difficult to handle. We suggest you seek the help of a counselor who deals with children. A counselor will be able to gain a detailed background of the situaiton and help to identify whether there are any patterns that need to be addressed and changed through play therapy and parental counseling. That way, you also will get an opportunity to clear any doubts or worries you might have about your son’s behavior.
If you wish to know more about the process and the fee structure of counseling at Inner Space, please write back at info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in You can even call us on 9833985538, between 11am and 7pm, Monday to Friday

Dear Rekha,
We understand that you are concerned about your son. Two main focus areas are apparent from what you have shared – The first is to determine whether his levels of hyperactivity are more than what is usually seen in children his age. The second is to help you in managing his behavior. A psychologist will be able to help you with both these areas.
We have sent you an email with further details about the process and the fee structure. Kindly check for an email from info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in

Dear Swapnali,
Thank you for writing in to us. We understand that you are concerned about your child. We suggest you consult with a psychologist who works with children. A psychologist would take a detailed background of the situation and all the concerns you have. From what you have written in, it seems as though it would be helpful to investigate the reasons why your child is lagging behind in studies. Some psychological assessment will probably be required for the same. A detailed background will help the psychologist identify what tests are required and why. Depending on how comfortable you feel with her suggestions, you can then decide if you wish to follow up accordingly.

Dear Milesh,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. We understand how worrisome it must be to see your daughter pick at her skin. Usually, such behaviors arise out of some suppressed emotions, such as anxiety, frustration, or low self confidence. There could also be some innate, developmental factors such as a tendency to get distracted or daydream, that could worsen the behavior. We strongly suggest you see a psychologist who works with children. A psychologist will gain a detailed understanding of the situation and let you know what needs to be done ahead. If you want to know more about the process and the fee structure of counseling, please call us on 983985538 or email us on info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in

We understand that it must be difficult for you to cope with this situation. We suggest that you consult with a counselor who works with children. A counselor will take a complete background of the situation and decide what needs to be done ahead. Sometimes, there are subtle problems that the child faces at an emotional level that he isn’t able to express, or cope with. A counselor would be able to identify and help him through any such difficulties.
She will also be able to help you adopt better ways of communicating to him and handling his behavior. If you want more details about the process of assessment, do write in to info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in or call us on 9833985538. We would be glad to help.

Dear Archana,
We understand that as a mother you must be worried and concerned. Your daughter seems to have a tendency to get wrapped up in her own thoughts/fantasies. Do you observe this behavior only while eating? Or does it occur otherwise too? There could be certain emotional difficulties/challenges that your child could be preoccupied with. Daydreaming often serves as a compensatory mechanism that helps the child deal with underlying difficulties. We would be glad to assist you in understanding what these underlying reasons could be, and importantly, what can be done to help change the same. We have sent you an email with more details about the process and fees. Please check for an email from info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in

My daughter will be 10 years old in 2 months.
My problem is that she takes too much time in eating may it be breakfast , lunch or dinner
I have tried everything to make her eat fast but in vain.
She is always dreaming and forgets that food is stuffed in her mouth.
Her eating time ranges from 1 hour to 3 hours. Nowadays she is always day dreaming and lost in her world.
It hardly affects her if we are upset.
She was super brilliant child before but nowadays she seems least interested in anything.
I am worried please help

Dear Naaz,
From what you have written in, it appears as though your niece is experiencing some emotional difficulties which affect her confidence and make her uneasy. Do you think there is anyone in her environment she will open up to? Someone she trusts and can talk freely to? If there is such a person, maybe she can express herself to them.
If she isn’t comfortable expressing herself to anyone in her environment, it would then help to seek help from a counselor who works with children. A counselor will gently help her express herself and then work through her emotional difficulties gradually, through sessions.
You can call us on 9833985538 to know more about counseling/to book a session. We would be glad to help.

Dear sir/mam

Dear Shyni,
We understand that you are concerned about your son’s behavior. Usually, behavioral problems arise because the child does not feel secure and peaceful within. Are there any areas of his life that he could be dissatisfied with? Try putting yourself in his place. Imagine a typical day in his life, and situations at school, with his friends and at home. Do you think he is not happy with any of these aspects? Give it some time, observe his emotions and keep putting yourself in his shoes. This way, you might get closer to understanding what might be bothering him from within. Then, you can work with these root causes of the aggression instead of only working with the superficial aspects.
We are linking you to an article that might help provide some perspective – Behavior Problems in Children: A Sign of Hidden Low Self Esteem?

We also think it would help to consult a psychologist who works with children. A psychologist would help you conclusively arrive at what could be causing these behavioral issues and how they can be modified.

Hope this helps.

While looking for some Child counselling help I came across your website. My son is 3 yrs and 8 months old. i find some of his behavior to be too hyper. His retention power and attention span both seem to be very low. he is is Jr. Kg and the school has introduced writing where he is finding it difficult to cope. May be we are unable to identify his issues with learning and writing and also failing to channelize his energy as he is a very hyper active kid. Would seek an appointment to check if there is anything we need to do to give him a better growing up days.

How and where do we start? Please let me know. We stay in Powai area.

Dear Ashish,
Thank you for writing in. We understand that you are concerned about your daughter. In our knowledge, remedial therapy usually requires longer than four weeks. Usually, remedial therapy needs to be consistently undertaken for a few months to more than a year depending on the extent of the child’s difficulties. You could enquire with some remedial education center, show them her report and ask them what needs to be done ahead.
Also, you have mentioned that she tends to get distracted and daydreams. This could occur since she is finding studies difficult. Does her previous report include a comprehensive assessment of Intelligence, Visual-Motor Skills and Difficulties in Attention, in addition to Assessment of Reading/Writing/Mathematics?. If not, undertaking a comprehensive assessment might help to to check if any areas of difficulty have remained unidentified.
Lastly, if it has been 1.5-2 years since she got her last psycho-educational assessment done, it might help to repeat the same, to plan remedial measures based on her current levels of reading, writing and mathematics.

if you have any more queries, you can call us on 9833985538. The timings for telephone enquiry are 11am to 7pm, Monday to Friday. We’d be glad to help.

Hi Saili,
We understand that this situation must be worrisome for you as a parent. Usually, when children refuse to go to school, there are some psychological reasons underlying this. These reasons could be emotional in nature. For example, the child could feel in a certain way about her studies, her friends, her teachers or herself. If her experiences in school are anxiety provoking, she would refuse to go. Some children also refuse to go because they are upset about something at home, or about their relationship with their parents. Whatever these reasons are, they are usually subtle and understood only after they have been explored.
Alternatively, reasons could be academic in nature. If children find studies difficult or feel they are not able to cope, they might react by refusing to go to school.
Usually, consultation with a therapist who works with children helps in uncovering these reasons and working through them. If you are not satisfied with your current therapist, maybe you could communicate the same to him/her. Let the therapist know what you are feeling and why. A discussion like this might facilitate fresh perspective, for both, the therapist and for you.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi
How do you expect your client(s) to contact your therapist in emergency situations? Also, when your client is regular and continuing counseling, do you keep track on how s/he is doing? If so, how? When when your client feels that therapist is less involved or not involved at all?
(FAQ section doesn’t answer above questions. Not asking details, so I’d prefer to be responded here in the comment section itself)

My daughter is 7.5 yrs.Though she is considered as a docile child but the problem with her is she takes quite some time to reply someone. She usually makes one repeat the question so that she gets time to think about the answer. In short we can say she is not at all witty.pls help f

Dear Mam,

My son is 3.8 months and I am a single parent and facing turmoil in our marital relationship since sometime. My son keep falling ill longing for his father (needs to hospitalize), whereas he is not bothered or worried about the child’s welfare.Is there any therapy through which i can help my child to overcome this loss.

Dear Shahid,
Thank you for writing in to us. We are extremely sorry for our delay in response. Due to an error, your comment was hidden until now.
We would be glad to help your son through play therapy. The counselor would initially spend time understanding what the underlying reasons are for his inhibition. Such reasons could be connected to anxiety, low self esteem and other such emotional factors. Once the roots of the problem are identified, the counselor would then help him overcome whatever fear he has. She would also give you feedback as to how you can help him feel more comfortable and confident.
Do write back or call us on 9833985538 to know more about the process and fee structure of therapy with children. The timings for enquiry are 11am to 7pm, Monday to Friday.

Dear Santosh,
Thank you for writing in to us. We are extremely sorry about the delay in response. Due to a technical error, we just recovered your comment. Is your child experiencing any anxiety with respect to school? Maybe there are some perceptions he has about school that make him internally anxious and inhibited. We suggest you visit a psychologist who deals with children. A psychologist would gain a detailed background of the situation and help you in identifying the root causes for the difference in his behavior at home and school. Once these causes are identified, she would work through these causes through play therapy sessions with the child. She would also give you feedback as to what you can do to help him open up.
Think through this. Do write back to us if you want to know more about the process and fee structure of child counseling. We’d be glad to help.

Dear Sonali,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We understand that you are concerned about the child. Sometimes, children who have learning difficulties feel segregated from the rest of the children they know. They are likely to feel like they are “lacking” and feel unsupported as well as pressurized by their environment. Such children tend to withdraw and are hesitant in their interactions with others.
Would her parents be open to seeking help for her? Counseling will help provide her with a space to freely express herself and to grow. The counselor will also help her deal with her apprehensions, working on creating a positive self-image.
We would be glad to help her through counseling. You can write in to us at info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in or call us on 9833985538 for information about the process and fee structure.

Hi Seema,
Thank you for writing in to us. We understand that you must be worried about your son’s tendency to become disinterested. In our opinion, it is necessary to determine why this is happening. These reasons could be emotional in nature. They could also be due to some innate factors in the child that he is not able to help. Finding out what is making him disinterested and withdrawn is the first step. It would help in deciding what needs to be done to help him overcome these tendencies.
A psychologist would be able to help you with this process. She would gain a detailed background into the situation and his behavior and accordingly suggest what needs to be done ahead. She would also let you know if some psychological assessment is required to help determine the underlying causes.

Do write in if you wish to know more about the process and fee structure of counseling at Inner Space.

Dear Vrunda,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We can understand, that as a parent, you are concerned about this situation. The difficulties that your child is facing could be due to certain underlying reasons that are developmental, emotional or a combination of both. Children of this age find it difficult to express verbally what they are going through or feeling. Hence, it tends to manifest in their behaviour. Don’t lose heart, you can gently ask him and encourage him to express how he feels. This will help you understand the reasons underlying his behaviour better.

We are sending you the link to an article that might help you. Click here to read.

If you feel that it is difficult to manage, you can seek help from a counselor. A counselor would gain a detailed understanding of the child’s developmental background and help in assessing the areas of concern. She would also suggest what needs to be done ahead.

Dear Ritu,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. We can understand how difficult and stressful it would be for your aunt and uncle to deal with such a situation. It takes a toll on one’s emotions and mental resources.
At the same time, your aunt’s daughter is probably undergoing some emotions of her own which she is not able to manage. This in turn is leading to a chaotic manner of making choices.
Would your aunt, uncle and their daughter be willing to seek help from a counselor? A counselor would attempt to help each of them manage their own emotions better, understand each other and build a space where they can co-exist more peacefully. Maybe you could speak with them and see what they feel.
If you want more details about the process and fee structure of counseling at Inner Space, do write back.

Take care. We sincerely hope this situation eases out for everybody involved.

She hates her parents though they love her a lot and made her an all rounder. She has contacts with guys very elder to her. She confessed that she has an affair with a guy quite elder to her since two years but the guy refused about any such relation and said that she is the one who forces him to contact her. she was caught red handed smoking by her teacher and was suspended too. she threatened her parents of their lives if they restrict her and tried to squeeze her mother’s neck. she uses abusive language for her parents. my aunt and uncle are going through a trauma and its taking a toll on their health too. plz help.

Dear Panchal,
Thank you for writing in to us. We understand that you are concerned about your son.
Maybe your son is afraid of unfamiliar faces, which is a trait that some children display.
Help him work through this fear, bit by bit. For example, meeting one new person is less threatening than meeting a whole group of new people. To help him work through his fear, you could try introducing him to just one unfamiliar person, in your presence. This way, you would be there to reassure him that the other person is safe to talk to.
Also, whenever you know your son would be meeting people, try and let him know beforehand, so that he isn’t caught by surprise. Gently let him know who would be coming.

Importantly, when your son is upset and crying, refrain from asking him to go ahead and talk to people, because this might make him feel more threatened. Instead, reassure him and give him some space to recover.

If you are worried about this situation, you could also visit a counselor who works with children. A counselor would help in identifying the potential reasons behind his behavior. She would also suggest what can be done to help him overcome the same.
If you want more details about the fee structure and process of counseling at Inner Space, let us know. We’d be glad to help.

Dear Sunidhi,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We sincerely apologize for the delay in response. The email server was down for almost the whole of last week, making email inaccessible. We tried sending you a detailed email with our suggestions but the email id that you have provided seems to be incorrect.

We understand that this must be a difficult situation for you to deal with.
It is necessary to understand why your daughter has picked up this habit and what factors sustain it. These underlying reasons are usually personal and delicate. The child might be hesitant to express herself to you, at least in the beginning. Try and gently ask her about it.
If you find this difficult to manage on your own, you can seek help from a therapist. A therapist would be able to elicit what your daughter is facing and help her and you work through it. Counseling would also help to provide a safe, comfortable space for her to express her thoughts and emotions.
We would be glad to help her through counseling. Let us know if would want to know more about the process of counseling and the fee structure at Inner Space.

From what you have enlisted, it seems that there are certain features of inattention that might be present.

Dear Mayank,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We understand that you are concerned about this situation.
Children at this age are starting to interact more holistically with their environment. They not only interact with their family members but also with peers and school authorities. They are adapting and learning as they go along. There could be developmental, emotional or behavioural reasons underlying your child’s communication abilities.

You can seek help from a psychologist. She will gain a detailed understanding of the child’s current situation, emotional needs as well as his developmental background. She would help to identify these reasons and gently explore and work with them. She would also be able to guide you as to what needs to be done ahead.

Dear Ma’am,
We have a son who is 5 yr 9 months old. He is good in studies, shows the right emotions, is very affectionate and fond of TV/Computers. The problem is he just does not communicate. I think his language skills are limited. He prefers to answer in ‘Yes’ and ‘No’. He still cannot tell a story. When he mixes with other children, he likes to be with them, plays and laughs with them, but again he does not talk much. There was a problem with fine motor skills earlier, which seems much better than now. He is prompt with his studies. He finishes home-work in time, knows all the alphabets and numbers supposed to be known for his age. Also, he does not like to follow instructions from anyone other than parents. Even teachers are facing a problem there because he simply disregards, whatever is told. I have started teaching him football recently and he seems to be picking up well. Can you help me understand what is the problem with him. Because he seems to be normal is every respect other than communicating effectively and following instructions of other people.

Dear Peeu,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. The child appears to have some fear of insects and bugs. In addition to making her understand, you can also help her express how really she feels about insects. You could ask some open ended questions to really understand what she is going through before trying to correct the fear.
If her fears are disturbing her, maybe it would help to see a psychologist. A psychologist would gain a detailed background of the situation and gradually help her in overcoming her fear.

Dear Bikram,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We can understand that you are concerned about this situation.
Language development and changes in behaviour can be affected due to developmental reasons. Also, after the birth of a sibling, most young children show changes in their behaviour as they try and adapt to new family dynamics. We would need to ascertain whether the underlying reasons for this situation are developmental, emotional or a combination of both.
You can seek help from a psychologist. She will gain a detailed understanding of the child’s current situation, emotional needs as well as her developmental background. She would help to identify these areas of concern and gently explore and work with them. She would also be able to guide you as to what needs to be done ahead.

Thanks

Dear Divya,
Thank you writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We understand that, as a parent, you must be worried for her.
There seem to be certain underlying reasons for her behaviour. These reasons might be either innate or emotional and have probably started to behaviourally manifest through different areas of her daily routine.
Sometimes, it can be difficult to understand this in everyday life. You can seek help from a psychologist. She will gain a detailed understanding of the child’s current situation, emotional needs as well as her developmental background. She would help to identify these areas of concern and gently explore and work with them. She would also be able to guide you as to what needs to be done ahead.

If you would like to know more details about the process of counseling and the fee structure at Inner Space, do let us know.

Dear Nikhil,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. We can understand that as parents, this situation must be difficult and worrisome for you. Yet, don’t lose heart. Over the last few years, we have been seeing several children who have similar behaviors. Eventually, they do cope, especially if they get the right kind of help and a supportive environment.

If you notice behaviours that might suggest ADHD, it is better to get it assessed. You can seek help from a psychologist. She will gain a detailed understanding of the child’s current situation, emotional needs as well as his developmental background. She would be able to guide you as to what needs to be done ahead.

Dear Kirti,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. We do understand how difficult it must be for you to cope with this as a mother. Some of your daughter’s behavioral difficulties could stem from ADHD, since ADHD makes children constitutionally prone to being easily provoked, impulsive and reactive. This is more because ADHD leads to a lot of pent up energy within, which the child is unable to release appropriately. Have you been going for any therapies for ADHD? Example, occupational therapy is often recommended for children having ADHD.
At the same time, there could also be some emotional difficulties that are being manifested as disruptive behavior. We suggest you see a counselor who deals with children. Let the counselor gain a detailed background of the situation and suggest what needs to be done ahead. If there are any psychological difficulties that the child is going through, perhaps play therapy and behavior modification would help.
We are also sending you an email with some details about the process and fee structure of counseling at Inner Space. Check for an email from info@demo.innerspacetherapy.in

Last but not the least, please do not give up hope. Your daughter is probably undergoing a struggle of her own which is making her prone to certain behaviors. We’re sure you are doing all you can to help her…and that is a whole lot! Please do not take credit away from yourself. We are sending you a link to some articles on parenting that could be of some help. Click here to read.

Warm Regards

Dear Yashita,
Unfortunately, we are not aware of any counselor contacts that we can readily share with you. However, you could try inquiring with a few centers and see what possibilities arise.
All the very best

My niece is in STD 9th.She has lost interest in her studies and we can also see drop in her confidence.She is sometimes careless.Since this year as well as next year is very important for her we are worried how will she handle it.please tell us how we can motivate her and help her out

Dear Devlina,
An internship or job sounds good. It would help you get some practical experience of child counseling.
However, I’m not the right person to guide you about places that offer such openings. Maybe you could look online for possible places.
All the best!

Hi Apeksha,
If you have taken commerce and have keen interest in the field of psychology, one option is that you switch over to arts and pursue graduation in psychology.
However, give it good thought before you make any decision 🙂

Wish you the best

Hi Apeksha,
Thank you for writing in. Psychiatrists are mental health professionals with a medical background. You would need to complete 12th with Science, then go on to do MBBS and then post graduation in Psychiatry.
If you wish to be a psychologist, you would need to pursue B.A. in Psychology followed by M.A. in Psychology.

Hope this helps.
All the Best!

Dear Rajesh,
Thank you for writing in. We understand how concerned you are about your son.
Often, when children don’t express themselves, are shy and afraid of mixing with other children and are aggressive towards their family members, we suspect some deeper psychological issues that the child has not been able to resolve.
We suggest you see a psychologist who deals with children. She would understand the situation in detail, identify what help the child needs and guide you accordingly.

Feel free to write back if you want more details about child counseling at Inner Space

Dear Rashmi,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. Your son seems to be undergoing some emotional difficulties that he is probably not able to express. When children, or even adults for that matter are very sensitive, it is usually because they do not feel secure enough to keep themselves at a healthy psychological distance from others’ comments and feedback. Are there people in your son’s environment that he connects with? It could be you or his father, or any friend. Even if he starts out by expressing himself openly with one person, it will help the process.
If you think this would not work, or that he won’t open up to anybody in his present environment, then consider seeing a counselor. A child counselor would be able to understand his issues in greater detail and would gradually be able to help him become less sensitive and more open. There are also psychological tests that help give more insight into emotional issues the child is not able to verbalize. You could check with the counselor about the same.

Take care and feel free to get back to us with any more queries.

Dear Riddhi,
From what you have described, inattention/hyperactivity appears to be a possibility. One way to determine if your child meets the criteria for ADHD is by way of psychological tests. Consult with your doctor about the same. Definitively determining the presence of ADHD will help you decide about intervention with more clarity. Occupational therapy is known to help children with concentration difficulties. You could find out more about the same and accordingly decide what you wish to do.

Thank you for writing in. Feel free to write back with any more queries.
Take care

Dear Srirangan,
Thank you for writing in and for sharing your concerns with us. From what you have written in, it appears like your son is dealing with some underlying emotional difficulties. Children are often unable to voice their feelings clearly. Hence, in order to feel more in control, they sometimes adopt bossy/dominating behaviors, as it helps them feel more powerful. We think some psycho-therapeutic work with the child would be beneficial, because the counselor would be able to gently address and work with both his behavior and the underlying emotional difficulties. We suggest you speak to a mental health professional about the situation. A psychologist/counselor would be able to understand the situation in detail and suggest what needs to be done ahead.

Dear Harvinder,
Thank you for writing in and sharing your concerns with us. At times, disinterest in studies and difficulty coping with academics can be signs of a deeper psychological/educational problem which needs to be investigated into by way of psychological testing. We have written an email to you. Go through it and get in touch with us if it seems like a suitable plan.
Thanks
