Child & Youth Counselling Services
Counselling Services
Thrive – Child & Youth is Insight’s program dedicated to children and youth mental wellness as well as support for parents and caregivers. Children and youth are facing stressors that were once seemingly reserved for adults, resulting in an increase in mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, stress, trauma, and more.

How We Can Help
Autism Spectrum Disorders
Learn more about how we can help you understand you or your child’s condition, coping skills, and ways you can support your loved one with ASD.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Children
At Insight, we can provide both a formal clinical assessment to diagnose ADHD and/or an initial screening. Therapy can help to decrease impulsivity and help individuals with ADHD to reduce symptoms and the negative impact they may have
Behavioural Issues
Explore strategies on managing your child’s problematic behaviour and how to help them manage and self regulate their behaviours. We can explain the difference between typical behaviours versus behaviours that are cause for concern, and if your child is dealing with a disorder, our therapists can provide additional support to help you to cope with the disorder.
Family Issues
Learn more about healthy boundaries, problem solving, healthy and effective communication and learn how to reduce conflicts.
FASD
We can help with education about this condition, offer parenting support, behaviour and other therapies. Our nonjudgmental and highly-trained therapists have experience in treating those afflicted with this disorder and can offer online telephone or in-person counselling.
Impulsivity in Children
Impulses don’t have to control your child. It is possible to find a way to deal with causes of impulsivity, mental health disorders, and impulsivity disorders. Talking with a therapist will help your child engage in an effective treatment that can help them to live a fulfilling life.
Learning Disorders
If you see that your child struggling in school and you suspect a learning disorder, it’s best to get confirmation and support as soon as possible from a qualified professional (such as a psychologist). Our team of therapists who specialize in learning disorders would be honoured to work with you and or your child to live with and thrive despite these disorders
Pervasive Developmental Disorders
We understand that a diagnosis of a pervasive developmental disorder for your child can be challenging and difficult to process. We can be part of that journey with you to help you come to terms with what you’re feeling and to support your child to help them to live their best life
