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.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Childhood and adolescence are the years of most rapid development - physical, mental, emotional, and social. These are periods of great opportunity but also of significant vulnerability - adversities in childhood and adolescence can lead to longer-term difficulties and a compromised quality of life. It is therefore important for problems, including those encompassing a child, or a young person's mental health, to be addressed in a timely manner.
I work predominantly with teenagers, young adults and parents. For people who have not yet turned 18, written parental consent to access therapy, will be required. For more information and to book an appointment, please get in touch.

Aberdeen's identity is defined by its role as the center of the North Sea oil and gas industry — a boom-and-bust economy that has created recurring cycles of prosperity and anxiety, and where therapists frequently address the occupational and psychological effects of energy sector uncertainty, offshore work stress, and the identity challenges of an industry in energy transition. The city has two major universities — the University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University — generating significant student mental health demand and clinical training programs that feed into the local therapy community. NHS Grampian provides public mental health services alongside a private therapy community. Aberdeen's geographical isolation at the northeast tip of Scotland, combined with the psychological effects of long, dark winters, means seasonal affective disorder and mood management are recurring clinical priorities.
