“Empowering YOUth to find hope”

We aim to provide early therapeutic interventions for the younger generation, between 13-24 years old, who grapple with mental health related issues in their developmental stage of life.

 

Adolescence is a significant developmental period where they begin to explore their sense of self and others. Adverse childhood events that are not addressed adequately will contribute greatly to the development of mental health conditions and a distorted sense of self in adulthood.

 

Young adulthood, on the other hand, entails several significant transitions in a youth’s life. Without the presence of a safe person to support and guide them, they can become susceptible to life stressors that contribute to the development of mental health conditions.

 

By providing support, care and concern for this young generation, we hope that they will be empowered to build resilience and self-confidence to manage their life stressors.
