Child or Adolescent Issues
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.

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.

Sudeva Hawkes
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, B.Couns., MNCPS Accred. , PACFA Reg.
My aimis to create a protected space where teens (over 13) can explore whatever is going on for them, without feeling judged or that they are expected to perform in some way. I combine clinical experience with with meditation and mindfulness to give the young people I work with something special, the opportunity to find their own sense of direction in the company of a supportive ally, eliminating that which is no longer relevant in their lives while developing new strengths.
