CHILD COUNSELLING SERVICES
Available in-person in Calgary and online across Alberta.
Therapeutic support that fosters healthy social-emotional and behavioural development.
Children often experience emotions, stressors, and interpersonal challenges that may be difficult to understand, regulate, or communicate effectively. When difficulties arise, such as anxiety, emotional dysregulation, behavioural concerns, interpersonal or school-related stress, therapy provides a structured, developmentally appropriate space to support emotional insight, skill development, and adaptive functioning. Intervention may also focus on strengthening family relationships and promoting healthier patterns of communication and connection to support the child’s overall well-being.

When Kids May Benefit From Counselling
Children may need extra support when they are experiencing:
Anxiety, fears, or worries
Sadness, low mood, or changes in behaviour
Big emotions or difficulty calming down
Trouble with attention, focus, or impulsivity
School or social challenges
Problems with sleep or separation
Difficult life transitions, loss, or family stress
If something feels disconnected, you don’t have to navigate it alone. A therapist can help you better understand what’s going on and guide your child toward healthier emotional patterns.
Our Approach With Children
Kids communicate in ways that are often different from adults.
Our therapists use a combination of:
Play-based and creative therapy to help children express themselves
CBT and modified CBT strategies appropriate for younger ages
Emotion regulation and problem-solving skills
Support for parents to reinforce strategies at home
Collaborative care, when appropriate, with teachers or healthcare providers
Therapy is always adapted to a child’s stage of development, strengths, and unique needs.
What Parents Can Expect
You play an essential role in your child’s progress. For younger children, therapy often includes parent involvement, such as:
Brief check-ins with the therapist
Learning strategies to support your child at home
Understanding what’s driving certain behaviours
Coaching on communication, consistency, and emotional support
Our goal is to support the whole family system—not just the symptom.
