Child or Adolescent Issues
Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
As a parent, it is difficult to witness your child or teen struggling emotionally. Finding help for children and teens experiencing anxiety symptoms, depression and other mental health challenges is vital. I am trained in CBT for children and youth through Royal Ottawa Hospital, Massachusetts Hospital, BECK and others. I have extensive experience working with children and youth in the foster care system as a former child and youth counsellor, and my years of experience working with children and youth contribute to building strong therapeutic rapport using therapy games, teaching vital skills and showing children and youth that life can managed without overwhelming feelings of anxiety or depression. I have specific training in protocol for OCD in children.

Kayleigh Arkalgud
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Working with children and teens, I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where they can explore their thoughts and emotions in ways that feel natural to them. I incorporate creativity, humor, and curiosity to engage them, whether through storytelling, play, or science-based approaches that resonate with their developing minds. Using Internal Family Systems and somatic awareness, I help them understand their emotions, body signals, and inner conflicts while also building practical skills to navigate challenges.
The teenage years, in particular, can be a time of significant confusion, stress, and anxiety as teens navigate their evolving sense of self in relation to others and the world around them. Emotions can feel overwhelming, and the pressures of growing up may be difficult to manage. In therapy, I provide a space where they can explore their inner world, gain clarity about their identity, and develop healthy coping strategies. By fostering self-awareness and resilience, I support them in approaching adolescence—and the transitions beyond—with greater confidence and a stronger sense of self.

Children and young people today face many challenges such as: bullying; dealing with the "new normal" of COVID-19 restrictions; academic performance and personal success expectations; peer pressure, fears and trauma; the expectation that being happy is something that should just come automatically; adjusting to natural hierarchies that no longer exist;
personal and oral hygiene; underdeveloped emotional skills; and the unhealthy use of technology and influences of social media. Hypnosis can provide a safe and effective solution to all of these challenges.
