At the Jadis Blurton Family Development Center, we offer counselling and psychological therapy, both in-person and online, for children, adolescents, and adults. We also offer family counselling and couples counselling.
In a warm an welcoming environment, or via online therapy, we can help with issues such as:
We always consider the best interests of our clients and shape our approach to their needs. In addition to symptom reduction, an important goal of therapy is self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-determination. We help you to envision a future that is informed by your own goals and desires.
Initial Consultation
This is an opportunity to meet with a member of our therapy team and provide background information that will help us assess your needs and goals.
If you are seeking child or adolescent therapy, the first session may be with parents only, or involve both parents and child. You will be informed of who needs to attend when you make your first appointment. There is no obligation to continue after the first session.
Treatment Plan
After assessing your needs and goals, your therapist will devise and recommend a plan to work with you or your child in weekly or bi-weekly sessions.
If you have any questions about the consultation or treatment process, feel free to contact us at info@blurton-fdc.com.
In child therapy, we believe it’s beneficial to spend time with both the parents and child and to establish an approach that is best for the family unit.
Our psychologists and therapists are trained in a number of different psychotherapeutic techniques and theoretical frameworks. We feel that it is important to use a range of approaches that are determined by the particular needs, personal styles and goals of the client.
We offer School Shadowing Services for children who would benefit from specific support adapting to a structured school environment, or who have school-related behavioral concerns. This service is also suitable for children with ADHD, ASD, and developmental disabilities. Learn more HERE.
Sometimes we’re faced with a problem that we just don’t know how to solve on our own. It could be difficulties at home or at work, coping with a health issue, low mood, anxiety, relationship difficulties, sleep problems, or more general dilemmas like what will give our lives meaning and purpose. When this happens, the psychologists and therapists at the Jadis Blurton Family Development Center’s Department of Therapy and Counselling can provide you with the support you need.
It is inevitable, from time to time, that two people who initially committed to love and take care of each other develop long-standing disagreements, have arguments, or even intense fights. What matters most is that both are aware and committed to repairing the relationship.
The objectives of couples therapy are to examine conflict and communication from a different perspective, to increase positive interactions and decrease negative escalations. We aim to establish healthy, understanding and effective ways to communicate and re-connect, verbally, non-verbally, and emotionally. With these in hand, couples will be able to gradually build shared meanings and hence a more trustworthy, committing and fulfilling relationship.
If you are looking for a better way communicating with your partner, consider couples and relationship therapy offered by Dr. Ken Fung using Gottman Method.
