Child Psychology

Unfortunately, children are not immune from mental health challenges. But our family-focused services help children, adolescents and teenagers understand their emotions and give them the tools to turn limitations into strengths.  

​

Early Intervention

​

The early years of a child’s life are a critical window for brain development, emotional regulation, and learning. When mental health or developmental issues are identified and addressed early, children have a much better chance of building resilience, forming healthy relationships, and succeeding at school and at home.

Our Treatment Rooms

 

Parents are often surprised to find our clinic rooms more homely and child-friendly than a formal office. These rooms are designed for infants, children and adolescent psychotherapy – open spaces, toys and books are all part of our holistic approach.
