Child Psychologists and Child Therapists in Pouch Cove, NL.

Parenting children in St. John's can be a very rewarding yet challenging privilege. There are times when children exhibit behaviors that parents may not not know how to control. Through counselling, Lesley can help to provide parents with the opportunity to identify negative behaviors and learn ways to implement positive changes that will decrease problematic behavior.

Working with young children requires an approach that differs from that used with adults. My approach with children is to provide a warm and safe environment and build a sense of trust. I adapt play therapy strategies in order to enable a child to communicate in a comfortable and non-threatening way. I use sand tray play, various art media, puppets and storytelling to engage, assess and work with children.
