Therapy for Children, Teens, Adults, and Families

A Safe, Supportive Space to Grow

Therapy isn’t just for crises. It’s a space to better understand yourself, improve relationships, and develop new ways to cope with life’s challenges.

At Young Minds Psychology, we take an integrative approach to therapy.
Every individual and family is unique, which is why we tailor our approach to meet your goals, needs, and personal history. Therapy is a collaborative process – grounded in evidence-based practices and built on a strong therapeutic relationship – where we work together to support growth, healing, and lasting change.

Who We Work With

We support clients navigating a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and relational challenges.

Therapy For Children

Children often express their feelings through behaviour. Therapy can help them:

  • Understand and express emotions in healthy ways

  • Improve communication at home and school

  • Strengthen emotional regulation and resilience

  • Manage anxiety, sadness, or big transitions

Therapy For Teens

Teen years are full of changes. We help teens:

  • Cope with anxiety, depression, and low mood

  • Navigate identity, school stress, or peer issues

  • Explore personal goals and decision-making

  • Build emotional awareness and self-confidence

Therapy For Adults

We provide therapy for parents and individuals seeking support with:

  • Burnout, stress, or emotional exhaustion

  • Relationship challenges or life transitions

  • Parenting confidence and emotional self-care

  • Building resilience and value-aligned living

Therapy For Families

Teen years are full of changes. We help teens:

  • Navigate identity, school stress, or peer issues

  • Explore personal goals and decision-making

  • Build emotional awareness and self-confidence

Therapy For Parents

Parenting a child who is struggling with big emotions can be challenging. We provide parenting and co-parenting support to help parents understand each other, their children’s mental health needs, and respond in ways that promote change, emotional well-being, and family harmony.

Our Therapeutic Approach

Our work is guided by three core pillars:

  • Evidence-Based: All interventions are grounded in clinical research and best practices

  • Trauma-Informed: We recognize how past experiences shape present challenges

  • Family-Centered: We actively involve parents and caregivers when appropriate to support long-term growth
