Children & Adolescent Coaching – Complimentary Consultation
Is your child or teenager struggling with ADHD or other forms of neurodivergence?
Young people with ADHD, autism or learning differences often experience challenges with focus, organisation, emotional regulation and school demands. Difficulties with study and revision skills are often linked to executive function development, and many young people also struggle with confidence, social interaction and communication.
Through specialist coaching, I work directly with children and adolescents to strengthen executive function skills such as planning, organisation, study and revision strategies, sustained attention and task completion. We also work on emotional regulation, confidence, and developing stronger social and communication skills.
I support parents as well, helping them better understand their child’s needs and offering practical guidance that strengthens communication and support at home and in school.
Book a complimentary consultation to explore how we can support your child’s development, learning and wellbeing.

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.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Being a teenager is like sailing through uncharted waters. You're caught between childhood and adulthood, often feeling lost and unsure about your direction. It's a time when:
Hormones can make your emotions feel like a rollercoaster
You're trying to figure out who you really are
Parents want to help but sometimes don't know how
Social media adds pressure to present a perfect image
The future seems both exciting and terrifying
It's normal to feel overwhelmed, confused, or even frustrated during this time. You might experience:
Conflicting emotions that are hard to understand
Pressure to conform to others' expectations
Uncertainty about your identity and future
Difficulty expressing your true self
What you need most is a safe space to be yourself - without judgment or constant advice. A place where you can:
Express your thoughts and feelings freely
Explore your identity without pressure
Voice your worries about the present and future
Be heard and understood, not lectured or criticized
I've worked with many teenagers just like you, providing that crucial safe space. Here, you can:
Sort through your conflicting emotions
Develop strategies to cope with stress and pressure
Build self-confidence and self-understanding
Learn to communicate effectively with parents and peers
Remember, it's okay to not have all the answers right now. Growing up is a journey, and having support along the way can make all the difference.
Ready to find your safe space? Call me. Let's navigate this journey together.
