As children and youth navigate increasing expectations and rapid changes, it’s normal for them to need extra support.
Is your child or youth looking for ways to:
- Promote personal growth and improve well-being?
- Develop self-regulation and healthy coping mechanisms?
- Increase capacity to think of new and different perspectives?
- Build secure and resilient relationships with family and peers?
Therapy is Not About ‘Fixing’
We understand that the word “therapy” might sound intimidating, and young people may worry about stigma. Our role is not to ‘fix’ your child, but to listen, understand their perspective, and support them in finding their own solutions to promote their mental health. We meet them where they are, recognizing their strengths and challenges.
Our Relationship-Based Approach
Zoe offers a warm, confidential, and non-judgemental space. We believe that healing and growth occur through the therapeutic relationship itself. Our approach is:
- Developmentally appropriate and child/youth-led.
- Attachment-based and relationally informed.
- Grounded in neuroscience and the belief in the inner capacity to grow.
Through deep communication and dialogue, we strive to reach the root of their experience, empowering the young person to clarify problems, see patterns in their relating, and make informed choices.
Integrated Therapeutic Tools
We use an integrated, holistic approach, tailoring tools to the needs of each young person. This may include:
- Talk Therapy
- Play Therapy
- Creative & Expressive Arts
- Sand-Tray and Puppetry
- Mindfulness Techniques
By using intentional, age-appropriate, and creative methods, Zoe facilitates a space where the child can engage in self-discovery, identify their internal resources, and strengthen their self-identity.
