Whether online or in person, my goal is to create a space where teenagers feel they are safe to share. I have a room in:
The Lomond Clinic - Helensburgh
Home visits can be arranged
Out-with my professional certifications, I feel that being a mother of 3 somewhat qualifies me to understand the gamut of emotions being a parent can bring. The highs and lows, the requirement to have skills but no blueprint to work from as we navigate the world of our own life, never mind that of our children. And yes although we were at one time categorised as children or young adults ourselves, time and experiences have a way of erasing certain memories or altering perception of what that was like.
Of course we have progressed more in the world of modern technology now, and that brings an extremely fast paced world to our door. There is a culture that has been created where not just our younger generation but many adults appear to require external validation of who they are according to how many likes or comments they receive via social media platforms, peers or constant distractions where people no longer have time to sit with feelings and learn how to process them in a healthy way. So many young people feel hugely overwhelmed and just can't cope.
My passion is helping young people understand who they are and how to recognise how they feel and show them how to navigate and manage their life in a way that is appropriate for them.
