Jo provides counselling support for children and adolescents experiencing emotional, behavioural or social challenges. She understands that young people often communicate distress through behaviour, withdrawal, anxiety, anger or school difficulties. Using attachment-informed, developmentally appropriate and play-based approaches, Jo creates a safe and engaging space where children and teens can express themselves, build emotional regulation skills and strengthen confidence. She works collaboratively with parents to deepen understanding, improve communication and foster secure, supportive family relationships. Jo’s approach focuses on connection first, helping young people feel seen, understood and equipped to explore life’s challenges.

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.

Children and adolescents are increasingly the focus of concern for many adults, including their parents and other key family members or friend. We have staff who specialise in working with particular age groups, from pre-schoolers (when the adults caring for the child are key people included in the therapy) through to older adolescents whose needs for independence are often needing to be balanced with responsibility and risk. Good therapy provided for these age groups can set the individual up for successful relationships into the future and promote their ability to seek further support as required into the future.

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 !
