Child/Teen
Haimove Amir
Registered Psychotherapist, psychotherapist
I provide individualized therapy and support for children and adolescents experiencing emotional, behavioural, social, developmental, and school-related challenges. Children and teens may struggle with anxiety, self-esteem, emotional regulation, friendships, communication, family changes, attention difficulties, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday expectations. My approach is developmentally appropriate and relationship-based, using play, creativity, conversation, and practical therapeutic strategies to help young people express themselves and build confidence. I also work with parents and caregivers when appropriate, helping families better understand their child's needs and develop supportive strategies at home. My goal is to create a safe environment where children and teens feel heard, respected, and supported.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Children and teens don't heal the same way adults do—they need someone who meets them in their world. As both a trained therapist and an experienced mother and grandmother, I know how to connect across ages: through play with younger children, walks and activities with teens, and deeper conversations when they're ready. Your child won't feel interrogated or judged—they'll feel understood. Together, we'll create safety where past hurts, family struggles, and overwhelming emotions can finally be expressed and processed at their own pace. Whether your child is anxious, acting out, or withdrawn, healing happens when they feel truly seen and accepted.
