It is common to suppress your feelings often thinking you won’t be understood, fear of judgement or that no one cares about your perspective or your feelings.
Counsellor Cheryl’s approach combines professional counselling training, experience as a youth mentor, and her own life lessons. This mix helps Cheryl connect, understand what you are going through, and offer support in a way that feels real and relatable. Cheryl focuses on building trust and making sure those she works with feel heard, so you can work together on what matters most to you.
Cheryl offers Counselling for Teens that fosters understanding, increases confidence, reduces anxiety, and improves overall wellbeing.

“If you woke up tomorrow and your best hopes had become a reality, what would you first notice?”
“Throughout my career and personal journey, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful the right support can be. One moment that stands out was when I worked with a teenager struggling with anxiety and self-doubt. They felt unheard, lost in their emotions, and unsure how to move forward. Through our sessions, we created a safe space where they could express themselves freely. Over time, I watched their confidence grow, their perspective shift, and their ability to manage stress improve.
This is why I do what I do. I believe that with the right support, healing and growth are always possible. “ Cheryl - Counsellor
