Childhood is often a time of playing, exploring, and learning about the world in a carefree and safe manner. However, if a child experiences events that psychologically affect them adversely, they may struggle to understand and cope positively. A child struggling with behavioral issues, developmental setbacks, or other psychological concerns can lead to distress, fatigue, and hopelessness for parents. Children and youth require various supports to positively cope with and overcome adverse life experiences.

The cognitive, emotional, social, relational, interpersonal, and behavioral impacts of such experiences can significantly influence a child's ability to overcome them healthily. At Shelly Quatieri & Associates, our excellent child psychologists in Calgary offer specialized child therapy and counseling to help children navigate these challenges.

Our child therapists and psychologists take a strengths-based, child-centered approach, focusing on building strong, open, warm, and connected relationships so children feel comfortable sharing their experiences. We empower them to find positive ways to express themselves and feel validated, helping them to self-regulate effectively as they navigate life, learn, grow, and thrive.

At Shelly Quatieri & Associates, we offer child counselling sessions in of Calgary, providing a safe space with a secure relationship where children can express themselves through therapeutic play. By talking and “playing out” their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a therapeutic environment, children attempt to master control over these experiences.
