Services - What to know

The ways you might use my help...

There are many ways to improve your ability to function well. We are all subjected to childhood 'norms' and we carry them through to our adult lives. The adult task is to manage emotions, especially those triggered from earlier events.

What I offer you....

Understanding childhood

The early childhood experiences follow us for the rest of our lives. The service I offer is to explore how those times affect you today — what happened then and how it plays out for you in your current relationships.

Using your common sense to evaluate your emotional triggering will help you better deal with events that are emotionally overwhelming.

Our expectation is that other people know what you are experiencing. A well developed empathic understanding of the human condition is required for this yo operate well..

Teenaghood growth

The adolescent stages can be defined:

Early — 10 to 13

Middle — 14 to 17

Late — 18 to 21

Early adolescent markers are a rapid increase in growth - hair, genitals, breasts. Early development can begin earlier for girls and for both can begin as early as eight.

In Middle adolescent boys voices will change, and both boys and girls will start to have an interest in sex. Important for them to be supported at this stage.

Late adolescence is marked by better impulse control and a stronger sense of self.
