Online therapy Services for Kids, Teenagers, and Their Families
Our psychologists work with families living in Montreal
Mental Health Support for Everyone
At Leon Psychology Clinic, we understand that kids and teens go through a lot as they grow up. In Montreal, little ones might find it tough to deal with worries, control their emotions, or get used to new things. Older kids often have to deal with school stress, friendship issues, and figuring out who they are. Our online therapy offers a welcoming place for young people to work through their feelings, get stronger emotionally, and learn important life skills for a brighter future.
For the younger ones under nine years old, it’s really helpful when parents get coaching on how to make their kids feel safe emotionally and handle any tricky behaviors well. As children get older, therapy helps them make sense of their emotions better, keep themselves in check more easily, and find healthy ways to cope with problems. Teenagers might be dealing with feeling anxious around others, not feeling good about themselves or having family troubles. They can really gain from our organized help that boosts their self-assurance and emotional stability while encouraging them to grow as individuals. We use proven methods like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to give young folks the strategies they need to tackle life’s challenges head-on.
Working together with families is key too – we guide parents on how they can support their child’s progress at home. No matter if your child is facing behavioral issues, dealing with loss or struggling with managing their emotions – our aim is always to offer the support and tactics necessary for lasting emotional health.
If you’re looking for caring and expert online therapy in Montreal for your child’s mental well-being – Leon Psychology Clinic is ready to assist your child in flourishing.

Montreal Psychology Frequently Asked Questions
How can I tell if my child or teen needs therapy in Montreal ?
It’s common for kids and teenagers to go through emotional highs and lows. However, if you notice your child is often anxious, has frequent mood changes, finds it hard to handle their feelings, pulls away from friends, struggles at school, or acts differently all of a sudden, they might benefit from therapy. A therapist can teach them ways to deal with their feelings and tough situations better.
What’s good about online therapy for families in Montreal?
Online therapy lets children and teens get help from mental health professionals without leaving home. It’s convenient because they don’t have to travel anywhere. Our online service is private and easy to use, so young people can talk to a therapist where they feel most comfortable.
What age groups do you work with, and what concerns do you address?
In Québec, psychologists cater to various age groups, including children aged 9 to 13, teenagers from 14 to 17 years old, and adults, particularly parents. They provide tailored assistance for a range of concerns such as managing anxiety and depression, coping with ADHD symptoms, processing grief, navigating family difficulties, and adjusting to significant life changes. The approach for each session is carefully designed to meet the specific emotional and mental requirements of the different ages they serve.
Is online therapy effective compared to in-person therapy?
Certainly, online therapy works well for a range of mental health concerns. Studies indicate that approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which we often employ, offer the same advantages even when conducted online. Our qualified psychologists make it a priority to maintain top-quality care in every session.
Parental involvement depends on the child’s age and needs. For younger children, parent coaching is often integrated to help reinforce progress at home. For teens, confidentiality is prioritized, though therapists offer guidance to parents on how they can support their child’s emotional growth.
