What you're booking

Is child therapy what you need?

Therapy for children roughly up to age 12, usually through play, drawing and structured activities rather than sustained conversation. Common reasons: anxiety, behavioural difficulties at school, a developmental concern, adjustment after a divorce or bereavement, or suspected ADHD or autism. Online delivery has real limits here, and honest platforms will say so.

Before you book

What to check when choosing child therapy

The questions that separate a good fit from an expensive false start. Ask them before the first paid session, not after.

  1. 1

    Ask whether online is genuinely appropriate

    Young children lose focus on video quickly. Some platforms run hybrid models or coach parents instead, that can be a better fit than forcing screen sessions.

  2. 2

    Check how parents are involved

    Child work almost always includes regular parent consultation. Confirm whether that's built into the fee.

  3. 3

    Look for child-specific qualifications

    Play therapy, child psychology and developmental assessment are distinct trainings. A general adult therapist is not automatically equipped.

  4. 4

    Clarify assessment capability

    If you suspect ADHD, autism or a learning difficulty, ask whether the platform can formally assess or only refer onward.

What child therapy costs in India

Across the 5 platforms here that publish a rate. Anything near the low end is worth a second look at therapist qualifications; anything near the high end should come with senior therapists or a specialism.
