Therapy is just not going to work if the person doesn't want to be there
In the U.K., parents can decide that their teen should attend counselling, but it is far better for the child to be involved in the decision.Sometimes, what seems like agreement arises from ulterior motives.In one sense, attending counselling is a bit like going to school. Technically, in the U.K., the parent of a child under 16 can, indeed,"require" their child to attend counselling, just as the law determines that a child under 16 must attend school.
Of course, there are ways that talented therapists can cut through the resistance and tap into a child’s curiosity to bring them onside. But a young person may still resent the fact that they were forced by their parent into a course of action that they did not choose to take.
