Is your child not functioning as you think s/he should at her/ his age? Within a friendly, clean environment, Adela can assess your child, as s/he plays (Theraplay) and chats with her/ him. Adela believes that every child has the right to feel secure, safe and fully alive. Learn how to recognize what your child needs, and how to discipline in an effective way. Learn to create healthy and loving boundaries and have a "good enough", gratifying and ongoing parent/ child relationship, that will set the stage for the dynamics during many years to come.

While I do not work with youth under the age of 16, our clinic has many child and family therapists who are availability to schedule a free consultation. Since children are often impacted by family dynamics, we often find the most effective way to work with children, ages 6-11, is within the context of family therapy.

Through play, art, and talk therapy tailored to their developmental needs, children can express themselves freely in a safe and nurturing environment. Therapy helps children build resilience, develop coping skills, and understand and regulate their emotions. It provides a space for them to explore and make sense of challenging experiences, such as family changes, trauma, or school difficulties. By addressing issues early on, therapy can prevent them from escalating into more significant challenges later in life. Ultimately, therapy empowers children to navigate life's ups and downs with confidence and emotional intelligence, setting the stage for healthier relationships and brighter futures.

Children are often impacted by family dynamics and for that reason, at Psychotherapy Collective our approach to working with children aged 6-11 is a family based approach. While I do not work with children under the age of 12, we have many therapists on our team who work with children aged 6-11. I encourage you to view our approach to child and family therapy (https://www.psychotherapycollective.ca/services/child-and-family-therapy) and schedule a consultation with one of our family therapists to see if they are the proper fit for your journey.

Children’s behaviour is often a reflection of their internal experience. Including parents/caregivers in therapy can provide the opportunity for parents to help their child better understand their emotional experiences, to facilitate helpful communication, and to provide an environment that fosters both security and independence. I work with individuals, couples, children and families. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit for therapy.

I have worked with children as young as 5 years old who have seperation anxiety, been abused, have FASD, or come from divorced and/or seperated families. These little people are sponges of their environment and display through spontaneous action what they are trying to cope with in their life. My approach is to help them cope with their emotions through play/art, breathing/relaxation exercises, and listening to their story in order to make sense of thier reaction. It is also imperative that I bridge the gap between keeping the child's confidence while communicating to their caregiver how to help the child on a daily basis.
