Young People and Family Counselling
Supporting children, adolescents, and their families to navigate concerns, build on their strengths, and enhance wellbeing.
At Our Wellness Collective, we understand that reaching out for support can feel like a significant step for young people and their families. Whether your young person is experiencing emotional, social, behavioural, or life challenges, we offer a warm, welcoming and supportive environment where they feel heard, respected, and understood.
We work with children and adolescents aged 6-17 years, alongside their parent(s) and/or carer(s). We recognise that every young person is unique and take time to understand what matters most to them- their strengths, experiences, culture, identity, and individual needs.
We believe meaningful support happens when young people, families, and practitioners work together in a respectful and collaborative way. At the same time, we recognise the importance of privacy and creating a space where young people feel safe to express themselves openly and honestly.
Our Mission
To provide a safe, welcoming, and inclusive counselling space where young people feel heard, respected, and supported as they explore their experiences, build resilience, and grow in confidence.
Our Vision
For every young person to experience a strong sense of belonging, connection, and wellbeing, supported by their family, community, and care team as they navigate life's challenges and opportunities.
We work with you to:
Improve communication and resolve conflicts constructively
Build emotional intimacy and trust
Explore and understand each partner’s individual needs, histories, and identities
Navigate complex cultural, societal, or family dynamics
Foster mutual respect, empathy, and understanding in your relationship
How We Work with Couples
From your very first session, you can expect a warm, confidential, and supportive space where both partners feel truly heard and respected. Your therapist will work alongside you to establish a strong, trusting relationship with both individuals, listening deeply to your shared story and understanding your relationship concerns. Together, you'll identify your collective goals for therapy, and your therapist will equip you with practical tools and insights to improve interaction patterns, navigate challenges, and foster lasting positive change within your partnership. We are committed to supporting your progress at every step, adapting the therapeutic plan as your needs and relationship dynamics evolve.
Our process is deeply rooted in trauma-informed care, ensuring that past experiences, whether individual or relational, are acknowledged and addressed with the utmost respect. We focus on creating a space for healing, growth, and connection where both partners can express themselves authentically.
Our Approach
Culturally Sustaining
We consider the cultural context of each individual in the relationship, recognising that identities, backgrounds, and beliefs shape how people experience and interact in relationships
Trauma-Informed
We understand the lasting effects of trauma and work with couples to create safety, both emotional and physical, within their relationship.
Integrative and Tailored
We use a combination of therapeutic techniques to adapt to the needs of each couple, ensuring that the approach is as unique as the individuals involved.
