Child and Teen Counselling

Do you feel concerned for your child and how they are doing at home or school? Are you at your wits end or you just don't know how to best help?  Together, we can support your child or teenager who is between the ages of 4-19 years.

 

The approach I take can vary significantly depending on the age, abilities, preferences, and needs of your child or youth.  Teenagers and young adults may be good candidates for a talk-based therapy.  I also utilize expressive art therapy, play therapy and sand tray, and other therapeutic activities and/or games as appropriate.  Some activities are rooted in CBT, DBT, or ACT techniques.  Games often target self-regulation/emotion regulation.  I will meet your child, teen, or young adult where they are comfortable and start from there. 

 

If your child could benefit from further support, I can also attend school meetings or medical appointments in order to work together as a team of supports for your family.  For more information about my approach, please click here.  Please note, while I specialize in many presenting struggles, I typically refer out for those needing support around body image/dysmorphia and/or disordered eating.
