Child or Adolescent Issues
Karen Skinulis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My area of expertise is in child and adolescent issues. I approach these issues from an Adlerian perspective. I believe that behaviour is socially embedded which means that a child/teen's misbehaviour is directed at a person, very often the parent, For that reason I will use family counseling to address behaviour concerns. We will look at the goals of the behaviours, ie. undue attention-seeking, power, revenge or assumed inadequacy. I will work on creating cooperation in a family through democratic parenting.

Wajma Omer
Registered Psychotherapist, MSc. Psych., RP
Working in a children's mental health agency for 14 years with youth ages 12-18 has allowed me to understand the social and emotional pressures that youth experience in today's society. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for youth to express their thoughts, emotions, struggles, and using a client-centered and strength-based approach help them find strategies that can help them explore healthy coping mechanisms.

Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Each child or adolescent responds differently to life's unexpected events. Some of these could be a death in the family, the first of a sibling, bullying, natural disasters, or parental divorce. It's important for the child or adolescent to have healthy social and emotional intelligence in order to lead healthy and happy lives.

Kevin Greene, Health & Happiness: Counselling and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
The stresses on young people today dwarf what existed when I was younger. My passion is to help younger people deal with their mental health challenges and find ways to adulthood that are as safe and fulfilling as possible. One of the biggest challenges that young people face today is online addiction, and one of my specialties is helping them separate the virtual from real life.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Goran Kosanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, HBCom, MACP
Children and adolescents face unique challenges that can impact their emotional well-being, including issues like anxiety, depression, behavioral problems, and difficulties with self-esteem. Therapy for young people focuses on providing supportive interventions to address these challenges, using evidence-based techniques such as solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT). By working with both the child and family, therapy can help improve communication skills, develop coping strategies, and promote positive behavior changes. Whether navigating school stress, peer pressure, or family dynamics, therapy helps children and adolescents build resilience, improve emotional regulation, and develop the skills they need for a healthy future.

Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Therapy is a helpful outlet for youth transitioning through adolescence. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

If you've found yourself asking yourself "Why am I like this" or "Why do I do this all the time", a lot of times, these issues root back into your childhood and adolescences.

Richmond Hill is a rapidly growing Toronto suburb in York Region with a majority Chinese population in many of its newer residential developments, alongside significant South Asian and Middle Eastern communities, creating strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Farsi-speaking therapists who can work within East Asian and Iranian cultural frameworks. The city's affluent suburban character and proximity to Toronto's tech and finance economy create a population with both the means and motivation to seek therapy, though help-seeking stigma in some East Asian and Middle Eastern communities remains a consideration. Mackenzie Health provides institutional mental health resources, with many residents also accessing the broader Greater Toronto Area therapy ecosystem. Richmond Hill's fast growth and relatively new development mean community ties can be shallow, and therapists frequently address social isolation and the challenge of belonging in a transient suburban environment.
