Tailored support for your unique journey
Katie brings a wealth of expertise to her role as a qualified counsellor, with a specialisation in supporting tween and teen girls through the complexities of adolescence.
With two decades of experience in the welfare and counselling fields, Katie has honed her skills and deepened her understanding of the unique challenges facing young girls during this pivotal stage of development.
At Social Minds, we prioritise the well-being of adolescent girls aged 11-19 years by offering neuro-affirming and trauma-informed counselling services. What sets us apart is our commitment to understanding the intersectionality of neurodiversity and trauma in the lives of young individuals.
By acknowledging and respecting the diverse neurological profiles of our clients, we create a safe and supportive space where they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.
