Child and youth therapy
Maybe mornings have become harder, friendships feel complicated, or your child seems less like themselves. You do not need to have it all figured out before asking for support.
Shima, Megan, Rashin, and Natalie offer therapy for young people. Ask Rashin about age and fit. Megan and Natalie see children from age 5; ask Shima about age and fit. Sessions are available in Mississauga and online across Ontario, depending on the clinician and your child's needs.
Our team includes clinicians who support children and teens with ADHD, autism and other neurodivergent experiences. Compare each clinician's age range and areas of focus below.
ADHD and neurodivergence
You may be looking for help with strong emotions, school stress, routines or relationships. Therapy starts with your child's strengths, needs and ways of communicating.
Shima and Megan list ADHD and neurodivergence among their areas of work. Megan sees children from age 5 and teens; ask Shima about the age range and approach that fit your child.
Sessions can make space for emotions, everyday difficulties and practical strategies, adapted to the young person's developmental stage and goals.
A free consultation is a chance to discuss age, communication preferences, sensory needs, parent involvement and the kind of support you are looking for. Ask which appointment format would suit your child before choosing a paid session.
These services are psychotherapy support. They do not include psychological assessment, diagnosis or medication.
Compare clinician ages and areas of focusAutism and developmental differences
Megan offers individual psychotherapy for children from age 5 and teens, including neurodivergent young people and people with developmental disabilities. Her experience includes working with autism, ADHD and OCD.
Her approach is supportive and collaborative, with sessions adapted to each person's strengths, developmental stage and goals. You can ask about support for anxiety, emotions and relationships, and how sessions can accommodate your child's communication.
This is individual psychotherapy, not an autism assessment or an ABA program. Megan does not offer couples or family therapy. Discuss parent involvement and fit during the consultation.
Mahima offers psychotherapy for autistic teens and adults. Ask about age, communication preferences, appointment format and the kind of support you are looking for. These are psychotherapy services, not autism assessments or ABA programs.
Choosing a starting point? Read our guide to psychotherapy for autistic children and teens in Ontario for questions about fit, communication needs and assessment.
For parents and caregivers
Your child may be having a harder time settling, naming what they feel, or getting through moments that used to feel more manageable.
Behaviour, school, routines, or family relationships may have changed. You can start by describing what you are seeing, without deciding what it means first.
It is reasonable to ask about age, fit, family involvement, current service options, and what to book before choosing an appointment. Our guide to questions worth asking before child therapy can help you prepare.

Before you book
Rashin works with children, preteens and teens; ask about the minimum age. Megan and Natalie work with children from age 5. Shima works with children and can discuss age and fit during the consultation.
That can depend on the child's age, needs, and the service being considered. Ask the practice how family involvement works before choosing an appointment. Our guide explains what parent involvement in child therapy may look like.
Individual sessions with Shima, Megan, or Natalie are $160 for 50 minutes. The first consultation is free and lasts 15 minutes. If you are looking for family therapy, ask about the clinician, session length, and fee before booking. Megan offers individual therapy.
Check that your child is covered under your plan and ask whether it covers a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). Ask about the amount available and any limit per session, too. Our insurance guide explains what to check.
Cost matters when you are choosing care. Anchor & Bloom offers private psychotherapy. Ontario also lists publicly funded child and youth mental health services. Check the program's age requirements and how to access it.
