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.

Modern Mind Therapy, Mackenzie Fournier
Registered Psychotherapist, BSocSc, MACP, RP
I support children and teens who are struggling with anxiety, worries about health or food, and disordered eating patterns. Using a gentle, developmentally appropriate approach, I help young people build coping skills, reduce anxiety-driven behaviors, and develop a healthier, more trusting relationship with food and their bodies—while also supporting parents along the way.

Anxiety, depression, school difficulties, peer relationships, emotional regulation, family conflict, low self-esteem, and behavioural concerns can all impact a young person’s well-being. Therapy provides a safe, supportive, and age-appropriate environment where children and teens can express themselves, develop healthy coping skills, build resilience, and strengthen emotional confidence while receiving guidance and support tailored to their unique needs.
