Child & Teen Therapy in Olds, Alberta

We help you understand your child’s pain and get them the relief they need.

You just want your child to be happy.

Watching your child, tween or teenager struggle with anger, and worry can be really tough. It seems like they're having a hard time with their friends, school and even activities they used to enjoy. They are often angry, worried, easily frustrated either defiant, blowing up or staying quiet. Lately, they seem to prefer their phone or their room, and when they do come out, it often leads to fighting with one of you exploding with big emotions or withdrawing quietly. You might feel helpless connecting with your teen and trying to reach them as you feel them pull away.

As a parent, you might be wondering if your teen is struggling with anxiety, depression, or ADHD. You wish things were easier for them. You just want them to be happy, confident, and successful. Rest assured, you're not alone in this journey.

Together, we can work towards helping your child or teen find their way to better days.
