New parenthood is such a tender time for couples. Whether you are trying to start a family, are a first time parent or a parent now managing more than one young child, you can find yourself depleted, overwhelmed, and experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions along with guilt at how that might be impacting your children. If you are managing a new baby with other young children, you may find that your older children are acting out at a time when you are sleep deprived and struggling to stay patient. Perhaps you and your partner hardly have time to connect and you feel distance or disconnected.

Clients seek counselling for a variety of reasons - relationship difficulties, marital problems, workplace stress, parent-child conflict, family dysfunction, anger, depression, grief, and major losses and changes in their lives. At times people become tired of the way they perceive or undervalue themselves or conversely, they may be tired of communicating with their partners, children, and others in a non-effective way. This may create high stress levels, anxiety, sadness, loneliness, and hopelessness, and as a result they may feel lost, misunderstood, or caught in a never-ending cycle and are seeking a different outcome.

Child Counsellors
Child psychologists in Newmarket, ON provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Newmarket build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
