The work of Lifelink Youth is an experiential, client centred, whole person approach using Emotional Literacy principles as a basis for its’ work. Any young person can benefit whether they have problems or not.
We offer a service for Young People aged 10-18 yrs through groupwork programmes and 1-1 support and counselling. We help them to recognise and manage their own feelings and develop skills and capabilities to deal with life and cope with challenges.
We take our services to the places and venues where Young People already are and work closely with a number of organisations including: Schools, Youth Health services, Social Work and various voluntary and statutory agencies supporting children, young people and families.
Four key areas of Emotional Literacy are:
- Self-awareness – mental, physical and emotional.
- Self-management e.g. motivation, planning, self appraisal, emotional resilience and relaxation skills.
- Awareness of others e.g. understanding body language, empathy, visualising how others see themselves and their situation.
- Relationship Management e.g. communication, listening skills, negotiation, sharing and having fun.
We also carry out training for other agencies and organisations.
