Youth coach
Liz Sorton works with young people (aged 12+) working 121 as a coach or facilitating on personal development courses.
Specialising in young people who are failing at school, looked after children (in the care of the Local Authority) and young offenders.
Why I work with young people
-
To re-connect young people to themselves, create calmness where anger and frustration occurs and to create robust self esteem to raise their expectations of what they can achieve in life.
-
To help young people connect with each other. I am totally aware about some of the challenges that young people living in London have whether it is gangs, seeing others as different due to race, ability or disability etc.
-
To help young people create or re-create a bridge to those adults around them who could support them to be what they want in life.

Confident communication
Pro social behaviour coaching focuses on 6 needs and how they are met currently and getting the young people to think about different positive ways to fulfill their needs – new vehicles. It gives the young people an opportunity to tune into their own identity, values and beliefs and then they create dynamic visions/goals aligned with them.
