CHILD & YOUTH COUNSELLING WEST OTTAWA 

Helping Young Minds Thrive

At Focus Forward Therapy Group, your child's care and mental well-being is our top priority. We understand that growing up comes with unique challenges. For this reason, our child and youth counselling services provide a safe space for children and teens to explore their feelings surrounding these challenges, learn healthy coping strategies, and build resilience. Whether your child is navigating anxiety, stress, family transitions, or social pressures, we're here to guide them forward.

Supporting Growth Beyond Sessions

Growth happens beyond the therapy sessions. Therefore, we work closely with families to create the support system necessary for your child to carry out what they've learned in session into their everyday lives. For example, we will help a child who has frequent outbursts explore their feelings and teach them healthier ways to express frustration. At the same time, we'll work with parents to guide them on validating their child's big emotions and reinforce calm communication strategies at home.

 

Life is full of ups and downs for everyone, and our Child and Youth Counselling Services in Ottawa, ON, helps young ones build the confidence and resilience necessary to face challenges effectively. Therapy becomes a toolkit for life, not just a solution for the moment. When it comes to helping children and teenagers, our mission is simple: guide them to grow into empowered, self-assured adults.
