Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
With my many years in education I am able and skilled at working with and relating to children and adolescents.
However what I believe makes me truly effective is that I am approachable.
What can I say kids like my smile!
It's also probably because I am still a kid at heart, and because I know what its like for kids to suffer trauma.
My father died when I was 10, he was an alcoholic and was abusive.
I grew up with prejudice, as I am half East Indian.
I moved out when I was 15 because I couldn't stand my step-father.
I started using drugs when I was 13 stopped at 26.
I believe kids need structure and discipline to keep them safe.
My students always said Miss Richardson is really tough.
She is firm but fair, and we have fun!

Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP, ExA
Children and adolescents go through enormous developmental stages. These stages are critical years to help them develop healthy ways to communicate and build a secure attachment with themselves, parents/caregivers, and others. Their social and emotional development are interconnected. My hope is that I can help you attune to your child/adolescent's emotions, discover/attend to their needs, and that your child/adolescent will learn to identify, label, and regulate their emotions in healthy and positive ways.

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.

Our team works with adolescents 16 + on a variety of emotional and behavioural issues including anxiety and depression, emotional dysregulation (intense emotions, behavioral outbursts), substance use, self-harm and suicide ideation, interpersonal difficulties, perfectionism, and trauma (including abuse, sexual violence, bullying, criminal victimization). Our adolescent therapists have experience supporting high-risk and justice-involved youth.
Since teens are strongly influenced by their home environment, we do our best to involve parents and family members when appropriate so that they can learn how to best support the adolescent in their life.
Our trained and passionate clinicians are committed to using evidence-based approaches which are tailored to the family's specific needs.
Reach out today for a complimentary 15-minute consultation. We will connect you with a clinician from our team of trained and passionate registered psychotherapists and social workers so that you can discuss your needs and how we might be able to help.
