Child/Teen
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.

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.
