HELPING YOUR CHILD THRIVE
Child Therapy
Childhood can be full of joys, but it also comes with challenges. At The Relationship Agency, we specialize in supporting children aged 5 to 15 as they navigate anxiety, depression, grief, social difficulties, behavioral challenges, ADHD, and school-related issues. We’re here to help your child build confidence, resilience, and the skills to thrive in their world.
Child Therapy is ideal for children who are:
Struggling with emotions like sadness, worry, or anger
Coping with the loss of a loved one or a major life change
Experiencing challenges at school, including focus or behavior issues
Showing signs of stress related to family or peer relationships
Diagnosed with or suspected of having ADHD
Finding it difficult to make or keep friends
How Can Child Therapy Help?
Through a combination of play therapy, CBT, mindfulness, and attachment-based approaches, we create a safe and nurturing environment for your child to:
Process their emotions and experiences
Learn coping skills for stress and anxiety
Build stronger social and communication skills
Strengthen their self-esteem and confidence
Feel more connected to themselves and their family
What to Expect in Child Therapy
We begin with an intake session, meeting with parents or caregivers to understand your child’s needs and goals. From there, we collaborate to create a tailored therapy plan. Sessions are trauma-informed and relational, designed to meet your child at their developmental level.
We incorporate tools like play, art, and conversation to engage your child in ways that feel natural and empowering.
FAQs about Child Therapy
How involved are parents in the process?
Parental involvement is key to your child’s success. While sessions are primarily focused on your child, we work closely with you to share insights, strategies, and progress. Depending on your child’s needs, you may be invited to participate in sessions or receive updates to support the work happening in therapy at home.
How do you handle consent for child therapy?
Under Ontario law, children under the age of 16 can consent to therapy if they understand the nature of the process. However, for young children, we typically involve parents or guardians in discussions about treatment, adhering to the confidentiality guidelines set by the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW).
Are sessions in person or virtual?
In-person sessions are recommended for children to create the best therapeutic environment. However, virtual sessions are available if necessary.
