Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RP (Qualifying)
Supporting children and adolescents through their emotional and behavioral challenges is a crucial part of fostering their growth and development. I specialize in child and adolescent therapy, helping young individuals navigate issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and behavioral problems. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and play therapy, I work collaboratively with both the child and their family to create personalized strategies for emotional regulation and coping. By building a strong, trusting relationship, I empower young clients to develop the skills they need to thrive emotionally, socially, and academically

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Children and adolescents often experience challenges not just in their minds, but in how they feel and express themselves in their bodies. Stress, anxiety, sadness, or frustration can show up as tension, restlessness, or emotional outbursts. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping young people safely express feelings, build self-awareness, regulate emotions, and develop healthy coping skills in a supportive and empowering way.

Chris Russell
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Psych, high honours, RCC
I have a deep affinity with this struggle in life, having been naturally drawn to people who have had these traumatic experiences. Find compassion for the self, and forgiveness for your abusers. I also understand that PTSD that past traumas can create for the survivor of childhood trauma.
