Psychologist, RPsych
Watching your child or teenager struggle with big emotions, school pressure, behavioral shifts, or low self-esteem is one of the hardest parts of parenting. When stress takes over, home life can quickly feel like a cycle of conflict, worry, or withdrawal.
You don't have to figure it out alone, and your child doesn't have to navigate these growing pains without support. We recognize that kids and teens process their world differently than adults. Our therapists meet young people right where they are, using creative, evidence-based approaches—like play-based therapy, expressive arts, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and family-centered care—to help them make sense of what they're feeling.
Together, we help children and teens:
- Build Emotional Literacy: Learn to identify and express complex feelings in healthy ways, moving away from meltdowns, outbursts, or shutting down.
- Strengthen Resilience & Coping Skills: Master practical tools to handle anxiety, bounce back from setbacks, and navigate school and social pressure with confidence.
- Foster Genuine Self-Esteem: Develop a grounded, positive sense of self, build healthy friendships, and stand strong against peer pressure or bullying.
- Support the Entire Family: Partner with parents and caregivers to improve communication at home, providing you with actionable strategies to support your child with clarity and ease.
You can help your child move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling confident and resilient. Let’s partner together to bring peace back to your home and give your young person the foundation they need to thrive.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
Children and adolescents may experience a wide range of emotional, behavioural, social, and academic challenges as they grow and navigate different stages of development. 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.

Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CCC
I am working with children of 7 years old and more, as well as with adolescents. Everybody's first language, from our young ages, is play. With a mix of talking and playing, we will build safety to explore what is difficult to talk directly to their primary caregivers.
