Audrey Palmer-Genesis Clinical Services
Registered Psychotherapist, CYW,MTS,RP (Registered Psychotherapist)
Childhood trauma can cause a great deal of difficulty in adulthood. It is important to address issues as they arise, so the traumatized child doesn’t become the dysfunctional adult. I practice in Toronto and the GTA, and offer a fifteen-minute consultation to get started.

Jennifer Ritchie Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CYW
*Welcoming new clients for immediate booking* I work with youth (10-18) who are looking to better understand themselves and make positive changes in their lives. If you're experiencing emotions that feel overwhelming or out of control, or if you're experiencing anxiety, depression, or are struggling with your self-esteem, let's talk about how I can help. Being a teen is not easy and navigating friendships, family relationships, school, dating, and day to day stress can be very difficult. Whatever the struggle, I'm here to help. I have many years of experience working with youth and it would be my honor to support you. You can find further details on my website under "Therapy for Teens". I look forward to connecting with you.

Simona Ilieva
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
While I do not work with youth under the age of 16, our clinic has many child and family therapists who are availability to schedule a free consultation. Since children are often impacted by family dynamics, we often find the most effective way to work with children, ages 6-11, is within the context of family therapy.

Simerpreet Ahuja, Soul Immersion Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD in Psychology
I work with children and adolescents facing a range of challenges such as anxiety, depression, behavioural issues, self-esteem issues and relationship issues. My approach integrates evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Humanistic, Attachment-Based and Psychodynamic approaches to address these issues effectively. I believe that fostering self-esteem is crucial in empowering young individuals to thrive. Through collaborative therapy sessions, I empower my clients to recognize their strengths, cultivate resilience, and overcome obstacles with confidence. Furthermore, I place great emphasis on establishing healthy boundaries as a cornerstone of mental well-being. By fostering clear communication and self-advocacy skills, I guide my clients in establishing boundaries that promote healthy relationships and emotional well-being. In my work, I integrate principles of secure attachment to nurture healthy connections and support emotional resilience. Through nurturing and supportive interventions, I help children and adolescents build secure attachments, fostering trust, empathy, and emotional regulation. Additionally, I use inner child work, which involves exploring and healing past wounds to promote inner healing and growth. In summary, my therapeutic approach is grounded in compassion and evidence-based practices. I believe in creating a nurturing and affirming therapeutic environment where children and adolescents can explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and embark on a journey toward holistic well-being.
