Child/Teen
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.

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.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If your child or teenager is struggling, it can feel overwhelming and at times frightening. You may notice changes in mood, behaviour, friendships, school performance, or confidence, and not know how to help. Children and adolescents often express stress, anxiety, grief, or trauma through behaviour rather than words, which can leave parents feeling confused or discouraged.
At Selah Counselling, we create a safe and developmentally appropriate space where children and teens can express what they are experiencing in ways that make sense for their age. We integrate play-based techniques, emotion regulation skills, attachment-focused work, and family collaboration to support growth and stability. We also work closely with parents, providing guidance and practical tools to help you feel equipped and supported. Our goal is to help your child build resilience, strengthen emotional awareness, and develop healthy coping patterns that carry into adulthood, while supporting your family as a whole.

I support children and adolescents in navigating the unique emotional, social, and developmental challenges they face. Whether it's anxiety, mood changes, identity exploration, school stress, or family dynamics, I provide a safe, empathetic, and age-appropriate space where young people can express themselves freely. Using a trauma-informed and integrative approach, I work collaboratively with both youth and their caregivers to foster resilience, self-esteem, and healthy coping skills during these critical formative years.
