WELCOME TO THE BRIGHT FUTURES BLUEPRINT PROGRAMMETM
Empower Your Teen or Young Adult's Transition to Adulthood.
Give them the strategies and tools to become emotionally resilient!
“There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children: One of these is roots; the other, wings.”
- Hodding Carter
ENROLL NOWAre you a parent of a 16-25 year-old?
They are going through the biggest transition of their life, from being cared for in a loving, protected home environment, to becoming fully functioning adults out in the world.
We need to give them the skills and strategies to grow beyond the problems and challenges they are facing right now, or are likely to face in the near future.
Whatever their situation; simply learning to ‘adult’, getting a diagnosis (‘labels’ are debilitating to self-worth and confidence), an inherited anxiety disorder,trauma from the past
such as being bullied,
the common denominator is anxiety and stress.
Anxiety is normal, but how do we prevent it from being disempowering?
How do we prevent it from becoming a disorder?

We are playing a game of catch-up!
There is a silent epidemic of anxiety disorders spreading like wildfire among young people today. Adolescents are not taught how to manage their minds and emotions successfully and constructively.
Schools don’t teach these fundamental and incredibly important life skills.
The latest statistics show some alarming trends: One in six school-aged children has an active mental health issue. There is a 10-year gap between the first symptom and getting help. A staggering 74% of mental illnesses are established by the age of 24.
As a society, we are treating symptoms instead of addressing the root of the problem of anxiety. We are on a hamster wheel of coping, searching for quick fixes and hacks…. Along with the influence of social media and curated lives, gaming, there are a lot of distractions. The ‘cancel culture’ in dating is incredibly damaging to self-worth.
We need to bridge the gap and give young people long-term solutions.
Parents, you don't have to do this alone!
There is a ‘done-for-you’ solution to provide an education in mental wellbeing for your child that is relevant to today’s world.

“Amali is highly skilled and adept at identifying how to approach problems and issues. From this, she is able to encourage self-examination and find the tools to understand why we behave in certain ways. She made a huge difference to my daughter’s mental state and helped her re-centre in order to move forward”.
- Alexandra, Parent to 19-year-old
"Amali is deeply interested in the health and well-being of young people. Her approach provides an important space for them to explore their challenges, and identify safe and healthy ways forward, something so many young people need in our socially pressured and intrusive world."
- Ali, Teacher and mother of 2
“I cannot recommend Amali highly enough. She is incredibly skilled, professional, and compassionate. Her skills are obvious, but what makes her truly special is her ability to connect with people from all nationalities and walks of life. Amali has a gift for creating a safe and supportive environment, which allows her clients to explore their thoughts and feelings honestly and openly and make them feel heard and understood. Amali helped me through a very difficult time in my life (when I was caring for my daughter during a crisis), and I would strongly recommend her without hesitation to anyone in need of support. Thank you so much, Amali!”

WELCOME TO MY WORLD
Hi, I'm Amali Gunasekera Ph.D.
As a lecturer at a leading university here in the UK I’ve worked closely with young people giving pastoral care and watched so many students struggle through their first year. I also worked with sixth-form students and saw a strong focus on grades and hardly any attention given to emotional resilience or personal development, which is the real foundation behind all achievement.
This helped me understand how the lack of early attention to mental health and wellbeing was catching up with my students at university. I've lived and worked in India and Africa too.
In my own life and doctoral research, my focus for many years has been self-actualisation or ‘Individuation’ (to use a term from Depth Psychology) and I’ve discovered many tools and strategies that have been very helpful to those I’ve mentored or coached.
That is why I am so passionate about creating awareness and change. In many instances mental illness is preventable with timely intervention.
This is such a beautiful time in their lives, full of promise and adventure! So my wish is to help and support them in every way possible!

Bonus For Committed Parents…
I offer you a challenge!
If you go through the course yourself, alongside your child, you will receive
2-for-1 access!
You will learn a huge amount too and have the chance to compare notes, open a new dialogue as a family as your roles switch from primary caregiver to friend and confidante.
I promise you, you will enrich your life and relationships with self-knowledge too, especially if you have had no medical background or have had no exposure to self-development before.
I know this is an unconventional approach, but I am committed to improving the current mental wellbeing climate for us all.
"We should be trusted to do more than set up our parents' iPads."
