Kids and teens in Gatineau might find it tough dealing with worries, managing their feelings, or getting used to changes. Older kids might be stressed about school, feel the weight of fitting in with friends, or be figuring out who they are. Our online therapy offers a welcoming place for them to talk about what they&#8217;re feeling, learn how to bounce back from tough times, and pick up important skills for a happier life ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For the little ones under nine years old, we help parents learn ways to make their kids feel safe and tackle any tricky behaviors. As children get older, therapy can help them make sense of their feelings, stay in control emotionally, and find healthy ways to deal with problems. Teens who are feeling awkward around others, doubting themselves or having trouble at home can get the kind of support that helps them feel more sure of themselves and grow in positive ways. We use methods like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to give young people the tools they need to face life&#8217;s ups and downs with a clear head and steady heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">We&#8217;re big on working together with families too.

Generally, what is discussed in therapy remains confidential unless there are concerns about safety (learn more about <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/leonpsychology.ca\/faq\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"60\" target=\"_blank\">limits of confidentiality<\/a>) or if your teenager provides explicit permission to involve others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\"><strong><strong>Who do psychologists in Qu\u00e9bec work with and what problems do they tackle?<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:17px\">Our clinic in Qu\u00e9bec is here for kids (9\u201313), teens (14\u201317), and their parents. We deal with issues like anxiety, depression, ADHD, coping with loss, family troubles, and big life changes. We make sure our approach fits the emotional and thinking abilities of each age group we work with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\"><strong><strong>What if my child or teenager is resistant to therapy<\/strong>?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:17px\">Kids and teens might not be thrilled about the idea of therapy at first. Talk to them openly about why you think it could help and what good can come from it. Let them know that therapy is a place where they can talk freely and learn more about themselves. If they&#8217;re still not sure, get them involved in choosing a therapist or encourage them to ask their own questions. This can make them feel more comfortable. Professional therapists who know how to work with young people are often good at connecting with those who might be unsure at the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Have more questions?
