How are families affected?
How can I support my teen during turbulent times?
What should I look out for?

As always, these resources do not replace therapeutic help, but are meant to serve as guidelines and support in between appointments.

The information is based on the training I attended last November: 𝘚𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘍𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘈𝘥𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘚𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦.

Follow us as we explore this important subject, and share with others who might need it. Let's raise awareness and stop the stigma, mental health is important for everyone during every life stage.

As one year comes to a close and another begins, we wish to thank all those who have trusted us with their stories, growth, and healing.

This new year, we hold space for gentleness over pressure, presence over perfection, and compassion over comparison. Wherever you find yourself on your journey, you are enough.

May the year ahead bring balance, connection, and care; for yourself and for one another.

Happy New Year from Iftaħ Qalbek

Hekk kif sena tintemm u tibda oħra ġdida, nixtiequ nirringrazzjaw lil dawk kollha li fdawna bl-istejjer, it-tkabbir u l-fejqan tagħhom.

F’din is-sena l-ġdida, inħallu spazju għall-ħlewwa minflok il-pressjoni, għall-preżenza minflok il-perfezzjoni, u għall-kompassjoni minflok il-paragun. Tkun fejn tkun fil-mixja tiegħek, int biżżejjed.

Nittamaw li s-sena li ġejja ġġib magħha bilanċ, konnessjoni u kura; lejk innifsek u lejn xulxin.

🎓 Exciting News! 🎓

I'm thrilled to share that I've graduated with a qualification in Clinical Supervision last weekend! This milestone represents a deep commitment to supporting fellow mental health professionals in their growth and development.

Starting January 2026, I'll be offering Clinical Supervision services to mental health practitioners who are looking to:

✅ Enhance their clinical skills and professional development
✅ Navigate complex cases with confidence
✅ Maintain ethical practice and self-care
✅ Foster reflective practice in their work with families and individuals

With my background in systemic family psychotherapy, a focus on transitioning to parenthood, navigating intense conflict, attachment and now advanced training in clinical supervision, I'm passionate about creating a supportive, collaborative space where practitioners can thrive. 🫶

The full list of accredited clinical supervisors who are also psychotherapists can be found here: https://familja.gov.mt/membri-tal-bord-dwar-il-professjoni-tal-psikoterapija/bord-tal-professjoni-tal-psikoterapija-supervizuri-akkreditati-ppb/

If you or a colleague might be interested in clinical supervision, I'd love to hear from you. Feel free to reach out via DM or 77771237 to discuss how we can work together.

Here's to continuous growth and supporting those who support others! 💙
