Children and adolescents may experience a wide range of emotional, behavioural, social, and academic challenges as they grow and navigate different stages of development. Anxiety, depression, school difficulties, peer relationships, emotional regulation, family conflict, low self-esteem, and behavioural concerns can all impact a young person’s well-being. Therapy provides a safe, supportive, and age-appropriate environment where children and teens can express themselves, develop healthy coping skills, build resilience, and strengthen emotional confidence while receiving guidance and support tailored to their unique needs.

Eileen Deswiage
Counsellor/Therapist, BSc., MSc., RTC., MTC., Registered Counseling Supervisor
Children and teens often communicate stress, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or unmet needs through behaviour, withdrawal, or emotional reactions. Counselling provides a safe and supportive space where children and adolescents can build emotional awareness, regulation skills, confidence, and healthier ways of coping while also supporting parents and caregivers in understanding and responding to their child’s needs.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
I particularly understand what it is to be a parent: I have 4 sons, now grown and 8 grandchildren. I have also learned a lot through my clients and from professional development courses. Parents must address all of their children's' needs, in addition to their own and teach their children to address every single one of those needs when they become adults. Growing up is not easy and adolescence can be a particularly tough time. Please reach out and let your community help.

Saskatoon is Saskatchewan's largest city and an emerging hub for agriculture technology, mining, and biotechnology — sectors that shape a therapy landscape distinct from more diversified Canadian metros. The city has a significant Indigenous population, with First Nations and Métis residents comprising a larger proportion of urban residents than in most Canadian cities outside Winnipeg, and therapists offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded care — including work on intergenerational trauma from residential schools — are an especially important part of the local mental health landscape. Saskatchewan Health Authority provides public mental health services, while the University of Saskatchewan's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local community. Saskatoon's cold winters and geographic isolation contribute to seasonal mood challenges that therapists here address as a recurring clinical priority.
