Helping Children Feel Safe, Understood, and Emotionally Strong

When children struggle, it can ripple through the whole family. You might notice big emotions, sudden changes in behaviour, or signs of worry, sadness, or withdrawal - and feel unsure about how to help.

At Four Wings Psychology, we offer child therapy in Nepean. Our therapists create calm, playful spaces where kids can explore their feelings, build confidence, and learn healthy ways to express themselves - while parents receive the guidance and support they need along the way.

What is Child Therapy?

Child therapy is a form of counselling designed specifically for young minds. Through play, imagination, movement, and gentle conversation, children can explore their emotions and learn the tools they need to feel safe and capable in their world.

Our child therapists are trained to:

  • Connect with kids in age-appropriate, engaging ways
  • Create emotionally safe and predictable environments
  • Support self-expression without pressure or judgment
  • Adapt therapy to each child’s unique needs and developmental stage

Caregivers are always part of the process. We see you as partners in your child’s healing and growth.

What Can Child Therapy Help With?

Children come to therapy for many reasons - from anxiety and frustration to family changes or school stress. Whatever your child is facing, therapy offers a space for understanding, healing, and growth.

We support children with:

  • Anxiety, fears, or separation worries
  • Anger, tantrums, or frequent meltdowns
  • Sadness, irritability, or withdrawal
  • Difficulty managing emotions
  • School stress or attention challenges
  • Social struggles, bullying, or peer conflict
  • Family transitions (divorce, relocation, new siblings)
  • Grief, loss, or trauma
  • Sleep, toileting, or eating difficulties
  • Self-esteem and early identity development

Your child doesn’t need a diagnosis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes, a few sessions can make a big difference in helping them feel understood and supported.
