Counselling For Children From Behavioural Therapy To Play Therapy

We help your child build the foundation to carry them through life

At Vitality Collective, your child’s mental health and emotional development are just as important as their first steps and physical milestones. 

We understand it can be difficult to see them struggling, or noticing changes in their thoughts and behaviours. Especially at such a young age. That’s why it’s our goal to help your child as early as possible, so they can learn the tools and skills to help them thrive throughout every stage of life.

Have you been noticing…?

  • Changes in thinking such as negative thoughts, lack of self-worth, trouble concentrating, changes in school performance

  • Changes in feelings such as explosive reactions or unhappiness displayed by fear, worry, anger, guilt, hopelessness, or sadness

  • Changes in behaviour such as wanting to be alone, crying easily, disinterest, sudden outbursts, falling back into less mature behaviours or being withdrawn

  • Physical changes such as headaches, tummy aches, lethargy, sleeping or eating problems, excess energy, nervousness displayed by nail biting or hair twisting

How our Child Therapists can help:

  • Emotional processing and regulation

  • Develop parenting strategies and plans

  • Manage anxious or depressive tendencies, ADHD, and disruptive behaviour

  • Increase self-esteem, self-worth, and confidence

  • Work through specific phobias, nightmares, or bed-wetting

  • Talk openly and learn new ways to cope with adverse childhood experiences (i.e. trauma, domestic violence, critical illness, caregiver mental health or substance abuse issues)

  • Navigate peer relationships and bullying

  • Find support during or after significant family problems or life transitions (i.e. divorce, grief and loss)


Building relationships that matter

Whether you’re looking at therapy for 5 year olds or therapy for 10 year olds, our first step is carefully building rapport and connection with your child. A professional foundation of trust allows us to assess their development, work together so they can better process their thoughts and feelings, as well as prevent issues from progressing into something more serious. 

Each therapist at Vitality Collective adapts their approach to your child's individual needs. We only utilize distinguished and leading therapeutic approaches, from behavioural therapy and cognitive therapy to play therapy, art therapy, somatic therapy and more.
