As a registered play therapy supervisor I have advanced training and clinical experience in using developmentally appropriate tools and strategies for addressing children's emotional difficulties. When children struggle with their emotions, relationships and life events, play and creative interventions act as the language for children to process in ways that traditional, adult-oriented talk therapies simply cannot. Children look forward to their counselling and experience psychotherapy as a positive in their lives. These play-based interventions, along with parenting supports transferred from the play therapy room to home, ensure families experience the long term changes they need.

Children, like adults, can be affected by anxiety, stress, pressure and self-esteem issues. It can be very challenging for children to balance a busy lifestyle of sports, school, friends, and personal growth. It can also be very challenging for parents to watch and support their child as they struggle. We use child play therapy as a great tool to support young children in expressing their inner thoughts and feelings, while also creating tools and strategies for how they can cope with things better. We will also work with the parents, as needed to better understand their child and learn tools on how to support them.

When working with Children and Teens I like to use an activity-based approach. This means we may use play, art or games to facilitate conversations and learn new skills. For example, if a child likes to create imaginary characters, we may use play to create new characters and have them face the challenges that the child is facing. We will then introduce tools to help the characters cope with those challenges.

My approach to counselling children is rooted working with the parents. Incorporating principles of attachment theory, I recognize the significance of secure emotional bonds in a child's development. I aim to address any attachment-related concerns with parents directly which will support the child in developing healthy connections. I tailor interventions with the parents to meet the unique needs of each child. Through exploration of emotions, coping strategies, and building resilience, children benefit from a supportive environment that facilitates their emotional growth and overall well-being.

Introducing brainwave optimization technology. A fast, effective, natural, and less expensive way to allow your child's brain to make the optimizing changes it desires to make---on its own! Without any external force, opinion, medication, diagnostic, etc. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or 877-606-6161.

Registered Clinical Counsellors, interns, and Child and Youth Care Counsellors provide one to one counselling for children with a focus on reducing anxiety, improving mood, enhancing social skills. Using directive and non-directive methods, children can express their innermost thoughts and feelings through a language that feels most natural to them: play. Expressive play therapy and art therapy can be useful tools for children with limited verbal abilities. Counselling can also be focused on regulating big emotions through mindfulness techniques, emotion identification, and coping skills. We enhance the service with parent participation options, including conjoint sessions.

Children are resilient. They have an amazing way of adapting to change in the world around them. When a child has lost their ability to adapt or is no longer able to cope and manage their world, a multitude of behaviors can manifest. This can be scary and frustrating for the parent or caregiver and can be equally difficult for the child. We understand and appreciate the struggles that children face today and how challenging parenting can be. We will work together to uncover the underlying issues and recreate harmony for both the child and/or parent. In a warm and understanding environment we will use a variety of techniques, customized to your child'd individual needs.
