Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
It is important that I create a supportive and safe environment for the young people and adolescents that I work with. This can be done through the development of a trusting relationship and the use of appropriate interventions.
One of the most important factors that I consider when it comes to developing a safe and effective environment for the young people and adolescents is the impact of social media and family dynamics. This is because I know that these factors can affect their well-being and overall self-worth.

Movement with Steph
Registered Psychotherapist, MCouns&PsychTh
I work with adolescents experiencing a variety of issues, for example, identity issues, anxiety, depression, stress, friendship/relational issues, etc. The adolescent years are tricky in-between years where clients are trying to bridge the gap between being a child and being an adult. I work collaboratively with the client to help them understand themselves better and help them to regulate their emotions.

Katie Waller
Psychologist, BPsych (Hons), MA ClinPsych
Being a younger therapist, I know more than some the struggles adolescents face today. Social media, body image, self-harm, and school pressure is only the beginning. I am passionate about helping adolescents navigate this difficult time with compassion and confidence.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have worked young people & their families since the beginning of my career & I am passionate about supporting this age group. I recognise the importance of working within an MDT framework, using trauma informed practice & working closely with families and significant others. For me, adolescence is such an important time for mental health support because it is the last opportunity before adulthood for creating change pathways. I believe it is vital to utilise the brain elasticity of adolesence (whenever possible) to give young people the best start to adulthood they can have.
