mindful counselling for youth
Let's face it, adulting is hard. And for young people entering this complex world, the journey can be particularly daunting. Between balancing education, career, and personal connections while managing finances and adult obligations, today's youth encounter a myriad of obstacles that may swiftly overwhelm them.
That's where mindfulness-based counselling comes in. It is a form of mental health support that combines traditional talk therapy with mindfulness techniques to help youth cope with the stressors of daily life and build resilience.
But what is mindfulness exactly? Simply put, it is the practice of checking with yourself, and responding to your inner experience - thoughts, physical sensations and emotions - with curiosity and care.
For youth feeling lost or uncertain, over or underwhelmed, practicing mindfulness can boost confidence and provide healthy ways to cope with stress and setbacks. By cultivating self-awareness and acceptance, young individuals can better manage their emotions and behaviors, positively impacting the direction of their life.
