I think some are and some aren’t. It really depends on the individual. I think sometimes when young people aren’t open to it, it’s perhaps because they don’t really know what it involves, and they might have a whole host of sort of ideas about what it’s going to mean for them. And that’s something that we can help with in terms of helping them to understand what talking therapy is about.
