Many times, child therapists overdo the family system in their quest to seek effective solutions for emotional, learning or behavioral concerns with young children. And many times doctors overpathologize issues that shouldn’t be medicated necessarily. This leaves parents wondering what is the best route for their child? Introducing brainwave optimization technology. A fast, effective, natural, and less expensive way to allow your child's brain to make the optimizing changes it desires to make---on its own! Without any external force, opinion, medication, diagnostic, etc. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or 877-606-6161.

Being a young person is hard, being the parent to a young person can be even harder – if your family is overwhelmed with conflict or if you believe that your child would benefit from extra support, adolescent counselling services in Calgary and in Alberta are available. Adolescent counselling helps your teen get guidance from a qualified counsellor. It is never easy for a parent to see their child struggling with life and experiencing challenges. As a parent, it is natural for you to want to provide the best support possible to your child, by working with an adolescent counsellor you can aim to understand your child, ultimately helping to guide them through any issues they are facing.

Medication for ADHD (Ritalin etc.) is not just controversial in the social media; it often is a big and difficult decision for the parents of young children. Some say it is totally overprescribed, while others shy away from getting their children the help they need because of media hype, mostly unfounded. Dr Mervin (Paraklesis Counselling) can come alongside you, and as psychopharmacologist assist you in making the best evidence-based decision for the mental and emotional wellbeing of your child. If it’s you that needs the ‘sedative’ and not the child, he will tell you – the best interest of the child will always be the focus.

Come, and learn how our Christian counselling and play therapy can both heal your child's heart and empower you to continue that healing.

Occasionally a child's response to life's pressures may become severe, and the parents' attempts to help their child may be unsuccessful. Children who have experienced considerable change in their lives or who have survived traumatic events need to express and understand their feelings. Stress related to a major life transition such as parental divorce may be impairing a child’s ability to cope and function.
