Young Adult &
Student Mental Health
From trying to navigate school, relationships, friendships, your identity and making decisions about your future - 'adulting' is no easy feat. We see you - we know you're doing your best and we'd be honoured to support you through it. We provide a safe and supportive space, empowering you to build resilience, improve emotional regulation, develop coping strategies and explore your identity and values. There's no questions too big, or too small for us!
​
Our down to earth, human first approach means that we connect really well with Gen-Z and youth. We're here to hold space for you to navigate what's really important to you, and be on your team as you forge your path into adulthood.
ADHD & Neurodiversity
Affirming Counselling
If you have ADHD (or think you might!) you may feel like you are trying to navigate a world which doesn't support or work for you. Our goal is to help you cultivate self-compassion, deepen your personal growth and self-esteem and learn skills and strategies to help you navigate the world and your responsibilities. We see the traits which others may see as weaknesses, as your strengths, and are here to help you learn how to harness them!
​
You don't need a formal diagnosis to work with us - we support those who do, and those who are curious or resonate with ADHD and neurodiversity.
