therapy services

We don't just offer therapy for children and adolescents, it's our specialty. Tailored therapy services are available for children, adolescents, and young adults up to 24 years of age.

​

Our clinic approach to therapy is integrative and evidence-based. Your psychologist may draw from a variety of approaches that are backed by research including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), trauma-focused CBT, acceptance and commitment therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and problem-solving skills training. The specific approaches used will depend on the presenting concerns, your goals and preferences, as well as what the evidence suggests is most effective. Together you and your psychologist will develop an individualized treatment plan to address challenges and areas of need, while maximizing areas of strength.

​

We also offer supportive counseling for young people without a specific presenting concern who just need someone to talk to about life's challenges. Supportive counselling can facilitate development of a healthy self-esteem, adaptive coping strategies, and effective problem solving skills, but is not as effective as other psychological interventions for the treatment of clinical disorders. Your psychologist will help determine whether formal intervention or supportive counselling is most appropriate.
