Kids & Teens

Counselling & Diagnostic Testing

Our Treatment Approach

Our clinicians provide treatment and diagnostic assessment for children and teens presenting with a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and learning issues. Common issues addressed include: depression, anxiety, trauma, behavioural difficulties, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD), learning disabilities, and autism spectrum disorders.

Your child’s well-being is our priority, and our clinicians have the tools, skill, and empathy to help your child achieve their personal best.

Each child is different, and services are tailored to each child or teen’s specific needs. For children, parents are closely involved in the treatment process every step of the way. Sessions are supportive, informative for parents, and engaging for kids and teens.

Our psychological reports are used by school boards’ Identification, Placement and Review Committees (IPRCs), Developmental Services Ontario, and other agencies to ensure your child’s access to supports.

SIGNS THAT YOUR CHILD MAY BE STRUGGLING

Is your child…

  • not working up to their potential in school?
  • showing behavioral difficulties (i.e., impulsivity, distractibility, inattention) at home and/or school?
  • having trouble paying attention?
  • not feeling challenged enough?
  • bored in class?
  • having emotional difficulties (i.e., depression, anxiety, etc…)?
  • not comfortable with gender?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, a psychological assessment or psychotherapy may be helpful in identifying and treating the problem.

Our clinicians offer therapy for children and teens in a safe and supportive atmosphere. We also provide support and guidance regarding parenting strategies to help parents support their child.
