Promoting Psychological Wellness
We help children and adolescents understand and manage their emotions and improve their relationships. Our psychologists work with children and adolescents struggling with:
• Anxiety
• OCD
• Sadness or depression
• ADHD
• We also support children and adolescents who would simply benefit from having a trained professional to speak to about their thoughts and feelings
Psychological Treatment (Therapy)
Psychologists at Red Oak make you feel understood and supported as they guide you through an evidence-based treatment plan.
The first step is to build rapport and trust, and to gain an understanding of presenting concerns. A social-emotional assessment helps psychologists identify treatment priorities and diagnose clinical, psychological disorders when appropriate. A tailored treatment plan, using current best practices, is discussed and agreed upon.
Parent Consultation
Our parenting strategies are designed to develop connection and self-compassion. Consultation with psychologists can be helpful when you feel that you are not able to manage your children’s behaviour effectively.
Psychologists at Red Oak teach you about child development and common parenting difficulties experienced across the stages of childhood and adolescence.
Our psychologists provide effective parenting strategies and help you develop a compassionate lens to understand your child’s challenging behaviour. When appropriate, psychologists teach behaviour management strategies and help you establish healthy boundaries with your children.
