Services
Our ultimate goal is to strengthen and support the mental health of families. To this end, we focus on services for children, youth, parents/caregivers, couples, and families. Services do not need to be geared towards the child. For example, if a parent/caregiver is experiencing their own mental health challenges or has questions about themselves, we are happy to support them in therapy or with an assessment!
Therapy is available in-person or virtually. Assessments are conducted in a hybrid approach, with some appointments occurring virtually and others in-person.
Therapy
We provide individual, couple, family, and group therapy. Common concerns that bring our clients to therapy include:
- worries and fears
- concerns about development, including toileting, sleep, and tantrums
- depression and trouble with mood
- attachment and relationship difficulties
- problems with behaviours, including lying, aggression, and defiance
- difficulty adjusting after scary or traumatic events
- obsessions and compulsions
- conflict between parents and children
- conflict and feeling disconnected in romantic relationships
- needing support for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism
The evidence-based therapies we typically use are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), attachment-based, Gottman method, and systemic therapies.
Our Therapy Process
Assessment
We offer psychological assessments for a wide range of concerns. We can answer questions about:

- autism
- learning problems, including learning disorders (sometimes called a psychoeducational assessment)
- how emotional difficulties affect someone, including questions about depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and bipolar disorder (sometimes called a psychodiagnostic assessment)
- development, including delays in development and trouble with daily functioning
