Support for Teens/Young Adults
The teen years are such foundational years for building confidence, emotional intelligence, and developing one’s identity and self worth, yet they can be the most tumultuous years for both the parents and the child. Let’s just say, we help our teens and their caregivers get off the emotional rollercoaster and back to building healthy relationships in and outside the home.
Just like every adult has individual needs for counselling, so do our teen clients. We can help your teen build healthy relationships with their peers, their parents, and most importantly with themselves.
Some areas we focus on in counselling are emotional regulation, helping the child express themselves in assertive/healthy ways, stress management, and digital well-being/safety. We also help our teens build confidence, set goals, build self worth, and build foundational tools for their transition into adulthood.
Some teens have a clear vision of where they want to go after highschool, while others struggle with feeling lost on what direction to go. Whether your child needs support with the transition to university, or help deciding on building that vision, we’ve got them covered!

DeAnna is absolutely passionate about helping teens develop the emotional, physical, and psychological tools they need for the transition into adulthood. The primary goal for therapy is to untangle the emotional distress, and then help empower the teen to set goals and have the confidence to go after their dreams as they transition into adulthood.
