Child Psychologist

Child Psychologists are clinical psychologists who provide treatment, therapy, and counselling to children, teens, and adolescents. They help the child (as well as parents and caregivers) navigate trauma, abuse, divorce, bereavement, bullying, isolation, disabilities, terminal illness, mental health diagnosis, and developmental issues.

As a Child Psychologist you could be conducting an initial assessment of a new client, teaching a teenager who is experiencing anxiety how to navigate daily life at school, listening to a child describe how they are feeling about the death of their grandmother, having a follow-up session with the parent of a young child with autism, attending a conference for health professionals, or just scheduling some self-care into your busy calendar.
