Damon Bachegalup | Family Intervention Consultant
I work privately with families of young men aged 15–25 experiencing persistent conflict, defiance, disengagement or difficulties at home.
My individually structured family interventions help restore parental authority, rebuild communication, establish clear boundaries and create lasting behavioural change.
My objective is to help families find a clear way forward when existing approaches are no longer working.
Discretion Comes First
All family enquiries and client relationships are handled discreetly. I do not identify the families I work with or publish personal client testimonials.
Private Family Intervention for Young Men 15–25
Private Family Interventions for Families Struggling with Their Son’s Behaviour
From Teencamps-UK to Private Family Interventions
Established in 2008, Teencamps-UK originally provided outdoor camp experiences for young people.
Over the years, my work evolved beyond group camps into increasingly individualised behavioural and family intervention.
Today, my practice is deliberately focused on private interventions for families facing complex behavioural situations involving young males aged 15–25.
The work is intensive, highly personalised and deliberately limited in availability.
You May Be Here Because…
Your son’s behaviour has become increasingly difficult to manage and what once felt manageable within the family has become a source of persistent conflict, frustration or concern.
Perhaps there is increasing defiance, withdrawal, disengagement from school or university, a breakdown in communication or a growing loss of parental authority.
You may have tried different approaches, sought professional advice or simply hoped things would improve but they haven’t and you have reached the point where you are asking:
“What do we do now?”
This is often the point at which my private, experienced and directly delivered intervention's can make a significant difference.
The Outcome
The aim is not simply to manage behaviour. It is to create meaningful and sustainable change within the young male and the wider family.
Families working with me can begin to move forward from conflict, uncertainty and repeated breakdowns and head towards:
Typical areas of change may include:
re-engagement with education or purposeful activity; reduced conflict at home; improved communication; clearer boundaries and authority; greater accountability; reduced risk and a more stable family dynamic.
Every family is different, and no outcome can be guaranteed. The work is individually shaped around the circumstances, relationships and challenges each family is facing.
Why Families Choose to Work With Me
When a family is dealing with a young male whose behaviour, relationships or direction have become increasingly difficult, choosing the right person to become involved is an important decision.
I have more than 26 years of experience working directly with young people, families and adults who are experiencing complex behavioural, relational and family difficulties.
My professional background spans youth work, family support, counselling, psychotherapy, mediation and behavioural intervention.
Over the course of my career, I have worked with families dealing with difficulties including school attendance, behaviour at home, conflict, communication, boundaries, parental authority and strained relationships.
I do not approach the young male in isolation but consider the wider family dynamic, relationships, communication, expectations, boundaries and authority and how these may be contributing to the situation.
Private Interventions
For families when conflict, defiance, withdrawal, disengagement or loss of direction has become difficult to resolve through conventional approaches.
Teencamps-UK provides private, intensive and individually structured interventions for families facing complex behavioural situations.

For PAs, Family Offices & Trusted Advisers
When a family requires discreet specialist support, the first approach may come from a PA, family-office professional or trusted adviser rather than the family themselves.
PAs, executive assistants, family-office professionals and other trusted advisers are sometimes the first people asked to identify discreet specialist support for a family member.
I work directly with a limited number of families and can liaise with the appropriate family representative during the initial enquiry process.
All enquiries are treated confidentially and each situation is personally reviewed before a consultation is offered.
When a Situation at Home Reaches a Turning Point
When behaviour, conflict or disengagement becomes increasingly difficult to manage, families often reach a point where they need to consider a different approach.
I work privately with families experiencing complex behavioural situations involving young males aged 15–25.
If something has happened recently or your situation has been escalating for some time, you can make a confidential enquiry directly to me.
Every enquiry is personally reviewed. Where there is a potential fit, I will explain the next steps.
I deliberately work with a very small number of families each year, allowing me to remain personally involved throughout each intervention.
