Counselling

Does your teenager seem excessively worried or stressed?

Is your child acting out at home or at school?

Are you concerned about your child’s social skills?

Hummingbird offers individual therapy services for children and adolescents having difficulty in a variety of areas, including regulating their emotions (worry, anger, sadness), making and sustaining relationships with family and peers, and self-esteem issues, to name a few. We provide individualized counselling in a safe and nurturing environment that is designed to get to the heart of the issue. Following an exploratory meeting with the parent(s), we meet with the child during one-on-one sessions to assess, treat, and provide long-term coping strategies.

Dr. Burhanpurkar employs cognitive behavioural therapy and other proven approaches, leveraging the latest research in the field. She listens, learns, and works closely with your child and family to deliver a personalized treatment plan.

We address the following concerns and more:

• Behavioural management and coping strategies (for example, those related to ADHD or Autism)

• Anxiety and low mood 

• Low self-esteem

• Difficulties making and keeping friends

• Adjusting to life changes (for example, divorce, family stressors)

Let’s get to the heart of the issue and start the healing process. Contact us to get started
