The years of adolescence can be amazing times filled with foundational experiences, learning, friendships and relationships. Some find this time can go more smoothly but it is not easy for anyone.
We all know there is so much going on in changing bodies, developing brains and a shift from total reliance on family to exploring who you are, who you want to be and how to belong in the world.
Managing so many different pressures may be daunting and difficult. Some young people find all of this harder and have bigger and more challenging concerns.
My job is to work with young people on the everyday stuff as well as the big stuff.
I will work with you to get to know what is most important to you, what you want to change or improve or understand about yourself better.
If bad things have happened to you I can work with you to heal so you do not have to carry those burdens any longer.
It is ok to have strong emotions, behaviours, reactions - in IFS we work with these not against them.
If you feel better on the inside, the outside world can be a bit easier.
Doing this work now can change the rest of your life…
