Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
I particularly understand what it is to be a parent: I have 4 sons, now grown and 8 grandchildren. I have also learned a lot through my clients and from professional development courses. Parents must address all of their children's' needs, in addition to their own and teach their children to address every single one of those needs when they become adults. Growing up is not easy and adolescence can be a particularly tough time. Please reach out and let your community help.

Meg Lindemulder
Marriage and Family Therapist, Canadian Certified Counsellor, Counselling Therapist
ildren and teens don’t always have the words for what they’re going through — and what helps a 6-year-old is rarely what helps a 16-year-old. At Curio , our child and youth counselling therapists work with kids and teens from ages 3 to 19, matching the right approach (play, art, talk, family work) to your child’s developmental stage and what they’re actually navigating: anxiety, depression, ADHD, neurodivergence, social pressures, big life changes, self-harm, or family conflict. We work alongside parents, not around them.

Psychologist, RPsych
Watching your child or teenager struggle with big emotions, school pressure, behavioral shifts, or low self-esteem is one of the hardest parts of parenting. When stress takes over, home life can quickly feel like a cycle of conflict, worry, or withdrawal.
You don't have to figure it out alone, and your child doesn't have to navigate these growing pains without support. We recognize that kids and teens process their world differently than adults. Our therapists meet young people right where they are, using creative, evidence-based approaches—like play-based therapy, expressive arts, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and family-centered care—to help them make sense of what they're feeling.
Together, we help children and teens:
- Build Emotional Literacy: Learn to identify and express complex feelings in healthy ways, moving away from meltdowns, outbursts, or shutting down.
- Strengthen Resilience & Coping Skills: Master practical tools to handle anxiety, bounce back from setbacks, and navigate school and social pressure with confidence.
- Foster Genuine Self-Esteem: Develop a grounded, positive sense of self, build healthy friendships, and stand strong against peer pressure or bullying.
- Support the Entire Family: Partner with parents and caregivers to improve communication at home, providing you with actionable strategies to support your child with clarity and ease.
You can help your child move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling confident and resilient. Let’s partner together to bring peace back to your home and give your young person the foundation they need to thrive.
