Helping Our Future See a Brighter Future

Child and Youth Therapy

Child & Youth Anxiety

Schooling, deadlines, and friendships can be daunting. We can help. We are helping children navigate an ever-changing landscape.

Relationships

Helping navigate youth through their first romantic relationships or breakups and understanding the complex emotions and feelings that come with this.

Depression

Youth are confronted with many life-changing issues, often with what feels like little control over them on a seemingly daily basis leading to lasting emotional distress. We can help to find solutions and ways to cope.

Helping Kids and Teens
With All of Life’s Struggles

Children and youth experience an overwhelming change in themselves and their environment while they navigate their way to adulthood. Children are bombarded daily with countless stressors, including topics like climate change, entering the workforce, post-secondary education, sexuality, and housing. All while struggling to find oneself while balancing school, friends, family, work and the challenges of navigating this complex space.

Words of Hope Counselling aims to provide a safe space where youth and kids can explore these complex situations and emotions in a safe environment free from judgement and fear of repercussions.

We provide clear and tailored coping and growth strategies to help kids and teens find their way in the world positively and constructively and develop healthy habits that will stay with them into their adult lives.
