Research has shown that the best approach for young children is the involvement of the significant adults in their lives. Care givers must understand and support the needs of the child. Further, children are a mirror for what is going on inside of us, emotionally, no matter how we "behave" on the outside. Their brains are "hard wired" to read non-verbal cues. If you feel your own negative feelings or ways of coping are impacting your child's behaviours or emotional regulation, focus, etc. please feel free to talk to me about it. I am a mother of three. I and am also well versed in children's conditions and symptoms, incl. ADHD and Anxiety as I worked extensively in Child Mental Health.

Ariella Boehm, MACP, OACCPP
I’m a mother of six, so I understand kids and all the interesting stages they tend to go through! Young children are naturally creative beings. That’s why they really catch on to the principles that I teach. I speak to them on an age appropriate level about the concept of thought. Here’s an example: What’s thought? Thought is like a beautifully wrapped gift. You can open it up and find a consolation prize and then you’ll feel kind of sad and be in a low mood, or you can open your gift and find exactly what you’ve been hoping to get (fill in the blank here:), and you’ll feel really good and be in a good mood. That’s how thought works!

Is your child throwing tantrums? Is he being bullied at school? Does she have difficulty expressing her emotions or making friends? Do you find you're frustrated with what is happening to your child but don't know how to help him? Psychotherapy can help both you and your child learn the skills and strategies so that both of you can be happy at home, at school and with friends. Call now to begin giving your child the skills he/she needs to be happy, connected with others and feel some control over their emotions.
Sarah Chana Radcliffe, M.Ed., C.Psych.Assoc.
I teach parents how to be the primary "therapists" for their children. Although children will sometimes need their own individual counseling, there are times when parents can apply interventions at home that will help children behave better, have fewer tantrums, perform better in school, sleep better, overcome certain fears and phobias, have higher self-esteem and so on. My book "Raise Your Kids without Raising Your Voice" has helped thousands of parents learn techniques to bring out the best in their kids and themselves. In counseling, I address individual challenges that children have and design specific interventions.

The first session is a meeting with the child's custodial parent(s), to obtain the necessary history and concerns observed or reported. Play therapy is the method used with young children. This involves the use of toys, arts and crafts, and puppet play. Psychoeducational materials, such as books are also included in the sessions as needed. When appropriate, parents will be included in the therapy, as children are encouraged to turn to their primary supports for direction outside of therapy and of course upon the end of counselling.

Many children grapple with unresolved problems, trauma, and emotional pain. Children suffer from specialized problems such as bed wetting, soiling, ADHD, and attachment issues. Counselling can help children resolve current problems, as well as provide tools to cope with life challenges later on. My therapeutic approach for young children is play therapy. In play therapy, your child uses dolls, art, and games to express thought, experiences, feelings, and conflicts. For older children I use specialized impulse control training techniques. Children of all ages can suffer from trauma. I use trauma reduction techniques that facilitate healing and adjustment. Please call for help & support!
Robert T. Muller, Ph.D., C.Psych.
Parents bring their young children or adolescents to see me for counselling when they are having severe conflicts with them, when they see that their kids are struggling with school-work or with peer relationships, and when their children are experiencing psychological distress such as anxiety, depression, or difficulty adjusting to change. In all my work, I include the parents as partners in the treatment process.
Ema Nardella, M.ED., T.C., S.S.C.
I use play therapy for young children. Children use great imagination with puppets/playhouses for example. Even for severe trauma/loss children rework difficult issues through play especially when the therapist/adult gets down to the same level and plays alongside, Significant others can be taught to play following the child's lead/language to carry on effective techniques with the child at home. I used to teach high needs children in the public school system with good results. Individual/family work provides an even better avenue for success. ADHD is often a common issue in my practice that this gentle 1 to 1 approach can give lasting results. Chidren benefit quickly from relational therapy

Early socialization is optimal timing for counselling, education, skills training, and learning. Infants, toddlers, children, and youth are in a constant state of growth and development physically, and socially. It is here that I bring to you and your family a host of assets that can assist with transitions, developmental stages, personality phases, and adjustments. Children need positive reinforcement as a key factor in every learning that occurs. I will help you and your youth learn ways of coping with stress, grief, adjustments, siblings, schooling, and or divorce-seperation. Developmental Disabilities is also a specialty of mine (Autism Spectrum Disorders, Aspergers, and ADHD).

Mary Lynn can work with you and your child's school to make plans for the proper assessment and classroom accomodations. She can help your whole family adjust to learning to support someone with a special need.

I often work with parents to help them with their young child's problems. When parents learn more effective parenting strategies, they are able to effect major improvements in their child's behaviour and well-being. Children often benefit from not being identified as patients. However, each case is unique. Sometimes a young child does need psychotherapy. I work with each family to find the right approach for them. Common problems include sleep and eating issues, tantrums, unwillingness to attend school, phobias, self-destructive behaviours, depression, and bullying. I help parents become more competent, decreasing the need for future psychotherapy and improving family relationships.
Nancy Christie, M.T.C., B.F.A.,C.Y.W.
When you seek help for your young one because the child has behaviour difficulties or mood problems, I make it a priority to support and assist you with your daily process with your child. Parents who want help with their children deserve all the help and understanding possible. Your relationship with your child is the most powerful healing agent available! I want to give you the tools you need to feel confident and calm in the face of your challenges so that you can relax and enjoy your child with less worry.

In today's hectic and demending world, children find themselves with many options, and choices to make. Without the appropriate tools and proper guidlines, they find themselves lost and alone. Issues ranging from peer pressure, to bullying, and eating disorders in adolescents and teens can be dealt with appropriatley with the right guidance. Psychotherapy and CBT works very well in these difficult challenges.
