Adolescent Counselling and Psychotherapy Services is an independent counselling service dedicated to helping and supporting teenagers and their families . Our mission is to empower teenagers in our community to realise their emotional and social potential through Counselling and Psychotherapy.

As professionals we can relate to , and understand the special needs of teenagers and their parents.
