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 !
