Counselling that Meets the Needs of Young Children
As a parent, you want the very best for your child—and when something seems off, you feel it in your bones. Childhood is full of ups and downs, but sometimes the challenges our kids face go beyond what they can manage on their own. If you're noticing changes in your child's behaviour or mood, you’re not alone—and therapy can help.
Signs Your Child Might Benefit from Counselling:
-
Frequent meltdowns or mood swings
-
Trouble sleeping or recurring nightmares
-
Difficulty making/keeping friends
-
Withdrawal from family or activities they once enjoyed
-
Ongoing worry, fears, or phobias
-
Low self-esteem or negative self-talk
Children often express emotional struggles through their behaviour, rather than words. Therapy is not about something being “wrong”—it’s about giving your child a safe space to feel seen, heard, and supported.
How Child Therapy Can Help
At Arnica Counselling Inc., our child therapists use developmentally appropriate methods like play, art, and conversation to help kids
