Children (6 to 10) Therapists in Calgary, AB

Parenting is the most invested relationship one can partake in. There are many tasks and challenges involved in guiding little people towards becoming adults. Life can force families to face events that impact children's ability to feel safe and function successfully. This is when it becomes key to incorporate "it takes a whole community to raise a child", and I believe that people do the best they can with what they know. I have dedicated 23 years to helping children express their needs. And I can help increase your "knowing" so that we can enrich your child's relationships and increase their tolerance for the difficult stuff

With over 20 years specialization in counselling girls and women, my work has evolved beyond talk therapy. I help people deal with the hard stuff - especially children's and women's trauma. I conduct comprehensive assessments for children along with play, art, and sand tray therapy. I use a multifaceted approach to heal trauma, focusing on reclaiming your voice and engaging in social justice. As a compassionate and educated advocate, you and your child can rest assured you have me on your side. Children & women, spiritual approaches, psychedelic therapy, assessments for court, and Long COVID Kids are prioritized.

Picture a sacred space of human connection that invites you to make room for the complexity of emotions and healing in relationships. In our sessions, I invite you to cozy up with a warm cup of tea, slow down, and reconnect with yourself, practicing self-acceptance through exploration. From a place of gentleness and curiosity, I aim to help you navigate the thoughts, feelings, and sensations that seem too big to carry alone. Because, I believe that healing begins with the permission to embrace our messy, imperfect selves. I also offer trauma-informed movement & yoga classes and group therapy.

Hi there! If you are experiencing pain and suffering, you are not alone. While difficult to accept, suffering is one side of the coin that is human existence; while happiness lies on the other side. Whether you are experiencing parenting challenges, relationship issues, trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, school/work issues, etc., our aim in working together will be to help you build healthy, fulfilling relationships and a life that is full of meaning and vitality. If you feel ready to take action towards building the life you want, I would be honored to work collaboratively with you as you move towards this.

I am a provisional psychologist currently working at Cultivate. I have a background in working with children with over 10 years of experience in various child support roles. In these roles, I have developed a passion for supporting people and creating trusting safe spaces. I have worked with various populations in a counselling setting and am enthused to continue to.

Through strong alliances with my clients I believe that helping them recognize their strengths and develop options is key to resuming personal competency and wellbeing in their lives and relationships. My skill in brief focused therapy enables resolution of most concerns within 3-7 sessions. I have developed expertise in organizing highly distressed individuals in crisis situations and in treating trauma. I have experience in successfully resolving symptoms by helping clients develop a positive connection to their emotional world. I have specialized training in the area of marriage and family therapy. I bring to my work passion, commitment, focused skill and professionalism.

As a psychologist with extensive experience working in private practice, schools and community settings, I aim to help families who are struggling with their child's behaviour find new ways to problem solve and work together. I specialize in the early childhood population - if you're struggling with your three, four, five or six year old, don't hesitate to shoot me an email! I also work with kids up to 10, helping them understand and express their feelings and solve conflicts, as well as improve communication with their parents. I practice from an attachment model - parent-child relationships are key!

My background is in systems theory; the idea that everyone is connected to those around them, with influence between all those people, organizations, and cultures. My approach to therapy is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy but I also see a need for insight into the meaning that we make/have made of things and how that impacts our present. Therapy then, involves opening space for a person to increase awareness of their own process and to see alternative perspectives, thereby empowered to make different life decisions. It is so exciting to see someone realize that they have the power to change their perspective and their life!

Hi there! My name is Jolene Siemens and I have been working with children and families for over 20 years in numerous capacities as a teacher, behaviour strategist, and now as a Registered Psychologist. I have a deep commitment to supporting those who are navigating life’s challenges with empathy and compassion. If you are experiencing anxiety, grief, stress, trauma, or are struggling with parenting, I will meet and honour where you are at in your journey and move forward with you.

It takes courage to seek help, so I commend you for taking this first step. Although therapy can seem intimidating, I view it as just like any other health service, such as the dentist or chiropractor. Just like how we visit the dentist if we have severe tooth pain or need a routine cleaning, I am here for both your traumatic experiences as well as maintenance sessions. No issue is too small when working with me and my practice, Arcadia Counselling. No one is meant to struggle alone, which is where I come in. Therapy looks different for everyone whether that is a place to unload, learn techniques, or improve your quality of life.

I provide services to families looking to better understand their child's unique learning needs. This includes assessment and potential diagnosis of students struggling to acquire academic or social skills, experiencing mental health or emotional distress, as well presenting with challenging behaviours. A better understanding of a student's strengths and weaknesses can assist the adults in their lives in better supporting them to succeed. More info is available at: albertapsychoeducational.com.

Over the course of twenty (20) years, I have developed an enhanced skill set; highlighted by my ability to create a safe and respectful space to foster open and honest communication, promote personal growth, create change and achieve conflict resolution. Conflict and change are natural aspects of life that can leave us feeling anxious, unsettled, confused, stuck and overwhelmed; however, when managed effectively these feelings can be productive and empowering. As a Mediator and Therapist, my practice is driven by the power of effective communication: promoting healthy relationships and improved client's skill set.
