Child Psychologists and Child Therapists in Lions Bay, BC.

Sessions can consist of art activities in person, expressive play interaction and learning how to regulate emotions as well as where they may come from. With children and youth I can provide a safe space for support and listening, help enlighten them on their feelings and thoughts. Challenges with anxiety, family stress and school issues can be looked at.

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.

Children older than six can benefit from working with me if they experience any of the following: • Anxieties, such as separation anxiety, performance anxiety or general anxiety • Fears or phobias • Traumas such as abuse, accidents, or other traumatic events • Behavioural issues such as angry outbursts, stealing or skipping school • Emotional dysregulation The techniques I use, including EMDR, hypnotherapy and CBT, are very effective with children, resulting in great relief in symptoms within a few sessions!
