Lennox Cadore
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP(Q)
Teens and youth often struggle to put complex feelings into words, which can show up as anxiety, big emotions, school issues, peer and family conflict, low self esteem, identity questions, and behavioural challenges. In Ajax, Pickering, and across Durham Region, I offer a warm, developmentally attuned space for adolescents. Drawing on more than 25 years of community work with youth, including boys' groups in schools, I use CBT, narrative, family systems, and person centred approaches, and partner with parents and caregivers so the whole family can support meaningful change.

Emaan Singh
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
During one-on-one sessions, I incorporate fun and interactive ways to connect with children and guide them in understanding their feelings, emotions, and behaviours. Sessions are designed to support their emotional and psychological well-being during this crucial stage of development. My role is to help them build coping strategies, emotional regulation skills, problem-solving techniques, and healthy communication patterns. I strive to ensure that families leave our sessions feeling supported, cared for, and equipped with effective resources that can be implemented into their daily lives, helping them reach their full potential.
