YOUTH COUNSELLING IN ONTARIO
Why consider therapy for your child or teen?
It’s tough to see your child go through challenging circumstances or emotions. As a parent, you want more for them—more smiles, more laughter, and more carefree days.
Therapy provides a supportive and understanding environment where your child can explore their feelings, learn coping skills, and start to heal. By working together, we can help your child overcome these obstacles, build resilience, and rediscover the joy in their everyday life.
Youth counselling can help your child or teen:
- Develop healthy coping skills
- Have a safe place to “vent”
- Become more confident
- Build more meaningful relationships
- Learn emotional regulation skills
Therapy may be beneficial if your child or teen is:
- More tired than usual
- Withdrawing from family and friends
- Facing challenges in school
- Having significant mood swings
- Often irritable or frequently crying
- Struggling to focus or complete tasks
- Showing changes in their appetite

Questions About Child & Teen Therapy
Will therapy help with my child/youth’s issue?
How do I know if the level of anxiety/stress is normal or if we should consider therapy?
Will I be allowed to attend sessions with my child/youth?
Is this normal for the age or should I be concerned?
In therapy, we equip you with practical skills that you can introduce into your relationship immediately, and because of this, you may notice improvements within a few weeks. Meaningful, lasting change takes time and patience as trust is rebuilt and new patterns are established. With consistency and commitment, you’ll notice that over time, you feel more affectionate toward each other. You’re arguing less, and when you do, you are able to resolve the conflict with a solution that works for both of you. You forgive each other faster, and start to enjoy each other’s company more than you did before.
Will you tell us when we need to stop?
Will I be allowed to get updates about my child/youth progress?

The Difference Youth Counselling Can Make
Every person is unique, and every healing journey is different.
Children and teens who attend consistently, complete the
homework and have the support of adults in their lives are likely to
see changes quite quickly while lasting changes come over time.
As your child or teen attends youth counselling you may notice that
they:
- Feel less worried, sad, or down and start to want to feel happier.
- Seem happier and more relaxed with friends, family, and other people.
- Ask to go to therapy again because they enjoyed it and felt it helped.
- Talk about feeling better about themselves and wanting to keep going to therapy.
- Start doing better in school or with their homework because they're not as stressed.
- Join in more with family activities and seem to enjoy spending time at home.
- Make new friends or get along better with their current friends.
