You're watching your teenager struggle with anxiety, and you want them happy and confident again. Justin gives them the tools to get there. Two online sessions, a daily task for 30 days, and Justin by their side from the first session to the final update call, with you kept in the loop.
Before anything is booked, I speak with you, the parent or guardian, by phone. It's how we both make sure this is the right fit for your teen. No pressure.
"I just want my teenager to be okay. To believe in themselves. To walk into a room and not be fighting themselves the whole time. I want them to have the life I know they're capable of."
They've stopped leaving the house. School refusal. Cancelled plans. A bedroom that's become a hiding place. You knock and get silence or anger.
They hold back in every situation. Too scared to speak up, join in, or put themselves forward. You watch them shrink when you know they have so much to offer.
They overthink everything. Exam nerves that go beyond nerves. Replaying every social interaction. Imagining the worst before anything has happened.
Their confidence just isn't there. Not the child who'll back themselves. Quick to give up, assume they'll fail, or decide they're not good enough before they've even tried.
They've shut you out completely. Every conversation ends in "I'm fine" or a door slamming. You can feel the distance growing and don't know how to close it.
You've been told to wait for CAMHS. Months on a list, watching things get worse, being told there's nothing to be done in the meantime. There is.
Your teenager doesn't need to be "fixed." They need the right tools, and someone who understands how teenagers actually work. That helplessness you feel watching them struggle isn't weakness. It's love with nowhere to go. There is somewhere for it to go.
Justin Toner, Teen Anxiety Specialist, LetterkennyNot sure if your teenager's situation fits? Ring Justin. He'll tell you honestly.
Your teenager doesn't need to be fixed. They are not broken. They are capable of far more than they're currently showing, they just need the right tools, and someone who understands how they actually work.
Justin Toner
Teenagers don't want to sit and talk about how they feel week after week. They want to stop overthinking. Walk into a room without panic. Believe in themselves again. Justin's approach works at the level of the patterns themselves, not the story around them.
Anxiety isn't a personality trait. It's a specific response pattern generated by a specific part of the brain. Justin's techniques work directly with that response, interrupting and rewiring it, rather than talking around it.
Many teens notice a shift during the first session itself, not weeks later. They leave with something that works, that they can use straight away, and that doesn't need years of practice.
For 30 days your teen gets one short task a day from the Teen Anxiety Toolkit. A few minutes at a time. Small daily wins turn a technique into a habit, and a habit into real change.
Each session includes a guided hypnotherapy session, a deeply relaxed, focused state where positive change is easier to take in. Justin explains it plainly to you on the parent call, so you know exactly what it is before you book.
Because it doesn't feel like therapy. There's no couch, and no probing questions about childhood. Teens often describe it as "finally someone who gets it".
The techniques become permanent tools your teenager owns. Not dependency on a therapist. Real, lasting skills that work in real situations: exams, social anxiety, everything.
That's exactly what the parent call is for. Ring Justin and ask him anything.
📞 087 687 8369: Parent Call, No ObligationThis isn't a criticism of counsellors, many do important work. But for teenagers with anxiety that needs to shift now, the difference matters.
Most therapy ends when the hour does. Here, the work carries on between sessions. From session 1, your teenager gets a daily task from the Teen Anxiety Toolkit, and Justin is on hand throughout the month to support them.
You're kept in the loop too. Justin updates you on progress and what your teen is working on, while keeping what your teen tells him private. The month finishes with an update call so you can see exactly what has changed.
Every review below comes from a Donegal family Justin has worked with.
"Our son had panic attacks every morning before school for six months. Two sessions with Justin and they're gone, completely. That was four months ago. He's back playing football and laughing again. I cannot recommend Justin highly enough."
"My 16-year-old son had completely withdrawn, dropped off the GAA team, stopped seeing friends, barely left his room. After one session with Justin he was a different young fella. By the second session he was back training. I genuinely didn't think it could happen that fast."
"Seven months on a CAMHS waiting list. A friend mentioned Justin. Within three weeks our son was back playing GAA and sleeping properly. Justin's follow-up call a month later meant everything, we weren't just left wondering if it would last. It did."
"My 15-year-old had crippling school anxiety for over a year. We'd tried two other therapists. After one session with Justin she went back to school. I genuinely couldn't believe it. He has a way of explaining things to teenagers that nobody else has."
"My son is 14 and had been struggling with social anxiety since starting secondary school. He refused to engage with the school counsellor, said it was pointless. He came out of his first session with Justin actually smiling. Two sessions later he's like a different young lad. Calmer, more confident, back himself again."
I'm Justin Toner, a teen anxiety specialist based in Letterkenny, Co. Donegal, working online with families across Ireland. I've spent years working with anxious teenagers, and I specialise in this area because I kept watching the same thing happen: families in Donegal trying to get help for their teenager and finding nothing that actually worked.
CAMHS waiting lists stretching to a year. Counsellors who were kind but couldn't move the needle. Teens who refused to engage with therapy at all. And parents, loving, desperate parents, watching their child disappear into anxiety and not knowing what to do.
I trained in techniques that work at the neurological level, not talking about anxiety, but directly interrupting and rewiring the brain patterns that create it. The results were so different from anything I'd seen before that I made it my full-time focus.
I always speak with parents first. Every booking starts with a phone call with a parent or guardian, before your teenager is ever involved. You can ask me anything, and we both decide whether this is the right fit. There is no pressure until you're completely satisfied that this is the right step.
I'm here in Letterkenny. I know Donegal, and I know what families across Ireland are dealing with when it comes to getting support for their teenagers.
Ring Justin. Ask him anything. No script, no sales pitch, just an honest conversation.
📞 087 687 8369: Call or WhatsAppOne price, one clear programme. No packages, no add-ons, no open-ended commitments.
Every booking starts with a phone call with a parent or guardian. Justin takes on a limited number of teens at a time so each family gets his full attention.
Call or WhatsApp 087 687 8369. Justin speaks with you privately, without your teenager. You explain what's happening. He listens, answers every question, explains how the sessions and the hypnotherapy work, and confirms availability. He also checks that your teen is a good fit, and tells you honestly if he isn't the right person to help. This call comes before every booking.
Your teen joins Justin by video call from home. It's private and relaxed, and nothing clinical. The session includes a hypnotherapy session, and your teen leaves with techniques they can use straight away. The 30 days of support start here, with the first daily task from the Teen Anxiety Toolkit.
One short task a day, a few minutes at a time, with Justin supporting your teen throughout. After each session Justin writes a personalised technique document for your teenager, in language that makes sense to them, sent to you to pass on. You'll be updated on how things are going without your teen's private conversations being shared.
Two weeks in, your teen has had real practice. Session 2 builds on what's working, deals with whatever has come up, and includes a second hypnotherapy session to lock the progress in.
Justin rings to review the month with you and your teen, covers what has changed, and makes sure everything is holding. Then your teenager gets on with being a teenager.
Support runs through the whole month. These are the key points.
Hypnotherapy session included. Daily tasks begin.
Builds on what's working. Second hypnotherapy session included.
Review the month together and make sure the progress holds.
The programme is a single price of €350. That covers both online sessions, 30 days of support from the first session, a daily task for your teen, and the end of month update call. There are no extras and no further charges.
Two online sessions (the first on day 1 and the second on day 15), daily support for 30 days starting from session 1, a daily task for your teen taken from the Teen Anxiety Toolkit, and an end of month update call on day 30 so you can see how things are going. Both sessions include a hypnotherapy session.
Because I only take on a small number of teens at a time, and I want to be sure there is availability and that your teen is a good fit for this programme. The call also lets you ask me anything before you commit. If I don't think I'm the right person to help, I will tell you honestly.
Both sessions include a hypnotherapy session, which I sometimes describe to teens as a positive mind trance. It is a deeply relaxed, focused state, a bit like being absorbed in a book or a film. Your teen stays aware throughout and is never made to do or say anything. I explain exactly what it involves on the parent call, and you agree to it before anything is booked.
Your teen's sessions are private, and that privacy is what lets teens be honest. I will keep you updated on how things are going, what we are working on and how the daily tasks are landing, without sharing what your teen tells me. The one exception is safety: if I believe your teen or someone else is at risk of serious harm, I will tell you. I explain this on the parent call so there are no surprises.
Each day for 30 days your teen gets one short task taken from the Teen Anxiety Toolkit, such as a breathing technique, a way to interrupt an anxious thought spiral, or a confidence exercise. It takes a few minutes. The tasks build on each other, so the skills become automatic.
Yes. Both sessions are by video call, so your teen can take part from home, and families anywhere in Ireland can book. I am based in Letterkenny, Co. Donegal.
Teenagers, typically from about 12 to 18. Ring me on 087 687 8369 and tell me your teen's age and what is going on, and I will tell you whether this is a good fit.
No. This is a practical, skills based programme for teenage anxiety, and it can sit alongside any other support your teen has. If your teen is in immediate danger, call 112 or 999, or go to your nearest emergency department. For medical concerns, speak to your GP.
Mon to Fri: 1pm to 7pm
Letterkenny, Co. Donegal. All sessions online.
