It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken adults.

Child therapy
La psychologie clinique pour enfants est une spécialité qui se concentre sur la compréhension et le traitement des différents aspects du développement psychologique, émotionnel, social et comportemental des enfants. En tant que psychologue clinicien spécialisé dans ce domaine, nous offrons des soins et un soutien aux enfants et à leurs familles qui font face à des défis et des problèmes psychologiques et comportementaux.
Nous travaillons avec des enfants qui rencontrent des problèmes d'anxiété et de dépression, les aidant à les surmonter et à acquérir les bonnes stratégies pour faire face aux émotions et aux défis quotidiens. Nous intervenons également auprès d'enfants souffrant de troubles de l'hyperactivité avec déficit de l'attention (TDAH), en les aidant à se concentrer, à être attentifs et à améliorer leurs compétences en matière d'organisation et de maîtrise de soi.
Nous offrons également un soutien et un traitement aux enfants atteints du trouble du spectre autistique, en les aidant à développer leurs compétences en communication et en interaction sociale. De plus, nous traitons les enfants atteints de troubles bipolaires, de troubles alimentaires et les aidons à gérer leurs émotions et leurs comportements nuisibles.
Indeed, the child never comes alone in therapy. As a general rule, it is the parents who decide on the child's therapy. Its therapy depends in part on the parents' involvement in the process.
As a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist, we cannot limit ourselves to considering the child without worrying about his family, school environment... It is in relation to this environment that he evolves and vice versa. During his evolution, the child is also likely to act, react, express himself differently towards his entourage. This can lead to changes in the family sphere or others.
Thanks to my professional experience in Canada as well as my studies in Morocco, I have acquired solid expertise in the field of clinical psychology for children. I rely on appropriate therapeutic approaches, such as:
Indeed, a child never comes to therapy alone. Generally, it is the parents who decide on the child's therapy. The child's therapy partly depends on the parents' involvement in the process.
As a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist, it is important to consider the child within the context of their family, school, and other environments. The child evolves in relation to their environment, and vice versa. Throughout their development, the child may act, react, and express themselves differently in relation to their surroundings, which can lead to changes within the family or other spheres.
With my professional experience in Canada and my studies in Morocco, I have gained a strong expertise in the field of clinical psychology for children. I rely on appropriate therapeutic approaches, such as:
Play therapy is a form of therapy for children that uses games and playful activities to help children communicate, express their emotions, and resolve problems. Children may struggle to express their emotions verbally, and play therapy can provide them with a means of nonverbal communication.
Therapists often utilize toys, role-playing, drawing, and other activities to encourage children to explore and express their feelings, develop their creativity and imagination, enhance their social skills, and learn strategies to cope with difficulties.
It is commonly used to treat a variety of emotional and behavioral disorders in children, such as anxiety, depression, attachment disorders, behavioral disorders, autism spectrum disorders, eating disorders, and trauma.
Family therapy : This approach involves all members of a family to help resolve interpersonal problems, conflicts, and emotional difficulties. It aims to improve communication, strengthen family relationships, and assist the family in coping with the challenges of everyday life.
Family therapists often work with families who have issues with communication, behavior, family dynamics, mood disorders, mental health problems, substance abuse, divorce, or separation.
We will work with the family to create a safe and collaborative environment to discuss the issues and help each family member feel heard and understood. We will provide guidance and strategies to help improve the child's behavior and mental health at home.
Art therapy is a form of therapy that uses artistic techniques to help children express their feelings, explore their emotions, and address emotional or behavioral issues.
The artistic techniques used can vary based on the child's preference and may include painting, drawing, sculpting, collage, dance, music, and theater.
This form of therapy is often used to assist children who have experienced trauma, abuse, family problems, behavioral disorders, or emotional difficulties.
It can also help build self-confidence, improve communication and social skills, stimulate creativity, and foster personal and emotional growth.
