Free Youth Support & Mentoring (Ages 14-17)

You’re allowed to have your own interests, opinions and plans, even while you’re still figuring them out.

Relationships can be confusing, especially when you’re dealing with arguments, pressure, changing friendships or feeling left out.

We can talk through what’s happening, think about boundaries and practise ways to say what you need. 

If you need further support, we can also explore who might be able to help.

You might be finding it hard to keep up, struggling to get started on assignments or feeling pressure to decide your future.

We can break tasks into smaller pieces, try a study routine or explore education and work options. 

There’s no expectation that you should already know what you want to do.

Sometimes everything piles up. Other times, you might feel upset or frustrated without knowing exactly why.

We can talk things through and explore everyday ways to manage stress, recognise when you need a break and ask for support.

Things that adults call “basic” aren’t always easy, especially when nobody has shown you how.

We can work on budgeting, organising appointments, planning your week or understanding forms. 

You can ask questions and practise without being expected to get it right straight away.

You might have something you want to achieve but keep putting it off, lose track of your plan or feel unsure about the first step.

We can work out a starting point, try different approaches and adjust things when they aren’t helping. 

A goal can be as small as replying to an email you’ve been avoiding.

Yes! KINETIX Youth Support & Mentoring is free for young people aged 14–17. 

You don’t need NDIS funding, a diagnosis, a GP referral or a Mental Health Care Plan.

You can reach out about everyday difficulties, something you want to work towards or a situation that’s been bothering you. 

We can discuss whether KINETIX is suitable for what you need - just reach out.

You can say exactly that. I can help you find a starting point, and there’s time to think before you answer.

Before sessions begin, we’ll discuss the consent arrangements needed for your circumstances and explain how a parent or guardian may be involved.

If involving them worries you, you can ask about this before sharing personal details.

We can discuss other services that may be more suitable if needed. Youth mentoring has limits, and some concerns need specialist support.

KINETIX provides free online support and practical mentoring for young people aged 14–17, with a focus on their voice, goals and everyday skills.

You’re welcome to ask about the service or help a young person express interest. Their willingness to participate matters, and they should be involved in decisions about their support.

Before sessions begin, we’ll discuss suitability, consent, privacy and how family involvement will work.

Appointments are currently at capacity. Registering your interest means I can contact you when a space becomes available so we can talk about whether KINETIX feels right for you.
