Child/Teen
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.

Mindnest Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Couns
Supporting children and teenagers through emotional struggles, school stress, anxiety, or behavioural challenges takes a different approach than adult counselling. I work with young people from toddlers through to teens using age-appropriate, play-informed, and strength-based methods, and I support parents alongside their children where helpful.

A to Z Psychology - Enhancing Minds
Psychologist, PhD (psychology), M Psych (professional), B Psych (Hons), MAPS
Children and teens often communicate through behaviour - and behind that behaviour is a story worth understanding (as all behaviours are a communication). We specialise in helping young people facing emotional regulation difficulties, learning challenges, anxiety, social struggles, and neurodevelopmental differences. Our work also includes caregiver support, school advocacy, and play-based approaches to help your child thrive at home, at school, and within themselves.

PELLA Wellness.
Registered Psychotherapist, Amanda Guilfoyle. M.Gestalt T. B.SocSci (Couns)
I have worked extensively with children and adolescents both one on one and running therapeutic groups in schools. I have also worked as a school counsellor in primary schools and high schools . When working with children the adults and carers in their life are always invited to be part of the process. I connect easily with children and young people and work alongside family ,carers and support workers to navigate and dissipate challenging behaviour . There is so much hope for children in therapy to be able to express themsleves in creative ways , give language to their emotional needs and learn different behaviours that will better support their life socially , emotionally and educationally . The teenage years can be fraught with difficulies due to the enormous growth happening on so many levels . This often leaves parents feeling bewildered . Therapeutic support can be beneficial as the young person navigates all these changes. I use a range of evidence based modalities such as Play therapy , Sand tray therapy and Acceptance and Commitment therapy . I also use poly- vagal techniques. Therapy can be fun for young ones !
