Youth Conversations

Having worked in schools and educational settings for over 15 years I noticed the ever growing need for open conversations where children can feel safe to talk about their ambitions and concerns.  Expectations of themselves, peer pressure, fitting in and growing up can all throw in obstacles that can manifest into negative feelings.  Through coaching I help young people develop the skills they need to manage tricky situations and lead a fulfilling life by looking at confidence, resilience, communication and self-awareness.

​

It is natural for a parent to worry about their child and whether they are happy, finding the right path or if they need guidance but it is not always easy, as a parent, to be able to have those conversations and that is where youth coaching can help.  By offering a safe space and impartial support I allow young people to speak openly about anything they want and we then work together to find solutions that they can not only use in the present, but long into the future as well.

​

If we can imbed early on, tools and techniques to help navigate growing up then we can encourage sustainable growth for the future of our young people.

​

It is always important to discuss with your child first if they wish to consider working with a youth coach. If they agree the next step is to find a coach that both you and your young person feel confident with and trust.  To find out more contact me today for an initial chat.

“My 10 year old son worked with Maryan to address some challenges he was facing at school. By asking searching questions she was able to elicit responses which helped him discover new ways of responding to situations. He was able to explore ideas in a safe space; Maryan made the coaching so much fun and with great creativity that he really looked forward to each session. Looking back he credits feeling stronger and more able to face similar situations going foward to his coaching with Maryan. Maryan brings great communication, fun, professionalism and quality to her work, I would definitely recommend.”
