Understanding Depression in Young People
Childhood and teenage depression, though often misunderstood, is a complex emotional issue that can have a massive impact on a young person’s well-being. Teenage depression is not a passing phase, it is a serious issue that requires sensitive and professional intervention.
At The Youth Fairy, we recognise the importance of timely therapeutic intervention. We believe that with early identification and effective treatment for teenage depression, your teenager can learn better ways of coping and develop more mentally healthy behaviours. Our team of experienced teenage depression therapists are specialists in working with young people and are dedicated to providing compassionate support while offering a safe and nurturing environment where they can explore their preferred futures.
With personalised therapy for depressed teenagers, we aim to teach your teen how their brain works to create their specific concerns. Together, we will work with your child to offer coping strategies and empower them to engage in more mentally healthy behaviours, taking small steps towards their goals. We understand that every young mind is unique, which is why our approach to childhood depression treatment emphasises a creative, solution-focused approach, taking into account social, family-related and other factors.
We equip teenagers and young people with the necessary tools and knowledge to manage their emotional well-being and thrive, both personally and academically. We aspire to encourage a sense of hope and resilience in every child we work with, enabling them to envision a brighter future for themselves.

Childhood and Teenage Depression Treatment:
Understanding The Signs and Symptoms
As a complex mental health issue, it is essential to understand the signs and symptoms for effective treatment of teenage depression. If you are a parent or caregiver of a teenager or child dealing with depression, not having the right answers can quickly become overwhelming.
However, it’s important to understand that depression can manifest in many different ways. This is why it is helpful to spot the signs and symptoms that a teenager with depression may show. Therapy for depressed teenagers targets these symptoms and behaviours, helping them develop healthy coping mechanisms.
Persistent Sadness
Teenagers experiencing depression may experience continuous feelings of sadness and hopelessness, which can often last for long periods, often affecting overall mood and demeanour.
Social Withdrawal
A noticeable decrease in interest in social activities and spending time with family and friends, along with a tendency to self-isolate.
Altered Eating Habits
There may be a sudden change in appetite, resulting in weight loss or weight gain.
Changes in Sleep Pattern
Children and teenagers with depression often deal with sleep issues, such as insomnia or oversleeping, which may lead to fatigue or a lack of energy during the day.
Lack of Concentration
There may be difficulties in focusing, remembering details and making decisions, which could further impact academic performance and overall cognitive abilities.
At The Youth Fairy, we understand the importance of early identification and intervention. When it comes to therapy for depressed teenagers and young people, our Fairies consider all the unique challenges that your child is facing. Together, we aim to offer a supportive environment to foster resilience and growth. Get in touch with us to find out more!
Adopting A Solution Focused Approach for Childhood Depression Treatment

Our process of therapy for depressed teenagers supports young people by teaching them the neuroscience behind their depression so they can develop the insight to make positive changes in their lives. It helps teenagers to build confidence, self-assurance and resilience. With a solution-focused mindset, we empower teenagers and children to recognise their inner potential and discover effective ways to cope with and better manage depression. With activities like storytelling, drawing or role-playing exercises, we use our creativity to tailor sessions for your child. Interactive sessions such as this not only allow young people to explore solutions to their problems and set small, achievable goals but it also enables them to build more effective coping strategies.
