Supporting Your Adolescent’s Growth and Resilience

Teen therapy provides a confidential, supportive space for adolescents aged 13-19 to navigate the challenges of growing up, self-discovery, and emotional wellbeing. At Choosing to Heal, our registered psychotherapists partner with teens using age-appropriate, engaging methods to foster confidence, coping skills, and healthy development.

How It Works

Every teen’s path is unique, so therapy adapts to their world—not a rigid template.

In the first session, your teen and therapist discuss concerns, goals, and background to create a personalized roadmap.

Together, they define goals like reducing school anxiety, enhancing social skills, or navigating identity questions.

Therapists use teen-friendly, evidence-informed approaches (such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, ART, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness, and Expressive Arts) matched to preferences and needs.

Progress is checked regularly, with flexible adjustments to keep sessions relevant, fun, and effective.

All along, teens enjoy a non-judgmental zone to open up, experiment with strategies, and grow confidently—with optional family involvement as needed.

Our Fees

Our teen therapy sessions prioritize accessibility and quality care for adolescents and their families. Individual Teen Session (50 minutes): 160 CAD
