Types of Bullying

There are many types of bullying, such as:

Physical bullying: Slapping, punching, and tripping
Verbal bullying: Teasing and name-calling
Social/relational bullying: Spreading rumours and gossip, ostracizing

Bullying is a severe problem and may increase the risk of mental disorders such as depression and anxiety and impair other areas of life.

If your child is being bullied or has had an adverse bullying experience, therapy may be able to help them cope with bullying in a more empowered manner, develop skills that would allow them to respond effectively to these experiences, emotionally process the adverse experience, and build self-esteem to move forward in a positive manner.
