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 !

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.

Vanessa Harnischmacher
Counsellor/Therapist, Bach of Social Science (Psychology), Grad Dip Couple and Family Therapy.
I am passionate about supporting parents to understand and develop strategies to support their child or adolescent's wellbeing. This means children are not labelled or stigmatised and helps to strengthen the bond between parent and child. I utilise attachment theory and neuropsychology to help you provide the most effective support for your child.
