We are a group of psychologists, who specialise in working with kids, teens and young adults. Do you know a child or teenager who might benefit from counselling? If so, go to www.developingminds.net.au/counselling to find out more about the psychological therapy and assessment we do, including information about who provides counselling, how much it costs, how it works, how we work with kids and families, where our offices are and how to make an appointment

I learnt a lot. I learnt that I can change the choices I have made. Year 12 Student, Unley High School

Do you want information and ideas about how to support or motivate a child or teen? If so, you might like to go to our our articles and ideas page at www.developingminds.net.au/articles. Here there are a range of free articles about caring for young people (eg helping teens with sleeping problems, ideas about sibling fights, knowing what to ask about facebook and many more). As well as these one page articles, we have more extensive resources for teens in senior school and their parents. If you want to purchase "The Years that Count" or another one of our products, visit the Products page. You can also sign up for our free e-newsletters which give regular advice about caring for young people. Everyone who signs up for the enewsletter automatically receives via email a free report on Six Ways to Help Students through Senior School. Kirrilie has a brilliant range of articles on her website which I often recommend to parents. Teachers: Do you want your students to know how to motivate themselves, manage stress and avoid social networking disasters? Or the parents at your school to learn about supporting and communicating with teens? If so, click here on seminars to find out about the training and education we conduct in schools and community organisations. We help teenagers with ideas about how to manage their time,
emotions, relationships, exam preparation and study life. We also help parents, health professionals, educators and youth workers know how to care for, work with and communicate with the next generation. Kirrilie has spoken to more than 30,000 people in audiences Australia-wide and her seminars and approach has been featured via the media (5AA, The Advertiser, Today Tonight, Channel Nine News, The Messenger, Madison Magazine and others). Kirrilie’s presentation was a stunning exemplar of good teaching practices. She was vibrant, lively and articulate, giving excellent practical advice to the students and she had a sense of humour! She kept her audience captivated for the entire hour. Year 12 Co-ordinator, Siena College

Happy Transgender Awareness Week! At Developing Minds, we want to show respect and care for every young person who comes to see us as they navigate their own journey of growing up — including those exploring questions about their gender and the gender spectrum.
