Help us in welcoming Azra! She will be helping us with providing continuity for psychological services while Esther is away. Existing clients of Esther's are welcome to continue with Azra, we're confident she's a great fit!

Azra is a Registered Psychologist with 10 years of experience supporting children, teens, and families. She specializes in therapeutic play, expressive arts, and strength-based therapy using CBT principles—all with an attachment-focused approach.

She’s passionate about working closely with parents, schools, and communities to promote positive mental health. Through therapy, Azra helps kids feel seen, heard, and supported.

Stay tuned, we're exploring whether it's possible for Pinecone to offer psychoeducational assessments in the near future and Azra is a key part of this plan!

💬 "My favorite part of working with kids? Building relationships—playing, sharing stories, and exploring personalities together!"

Abdominal pain is a common concern for children referred to Pinecone Pediatrics. It can have a significant impact on quality of life and can lead to lots of frustration for families.

We've created a resource for families to understand and start finding strategies to improve function and resilience for children with chronic abdominal pain.

Pinecone is thrilled to welcome Sarah!

Sarah is a Developmental Pediatrician, who completed her residency in Saskatoon and sub-specialty training in Calgary.

Sarah will add more capacity to see referrals from GPs or Pediatricians to clarify diagnoses of Autism, or to provide treatment recommendations for kids with neurodevelopmental disorders who have concurrent mood, anxiety, social or medical disorders.

We're very excited to have her join our team! 🌲 💪 🧠

Self harm (non suicidal self injury) is a common presenting concern for children struggling with mental health. It can be difficult for families to navigate the why and the how to get help and the where to start. Pinecone is trying to make those difficult conversations a little less challenging by providing some conversation starters, both for caregivers and for youth.

We also have our more in-depth discussion on self harm on the website, if you need more information!

So grateful for Esther! Our psychologist has put a lot of effort into creating this great handout for parents and youth who want to know more about self-harm and what can be done to support those who are suffering. You can find it, and other handouts, on our website.

We're helping parents and our patients understand language and concepts around gender diversity. If someone you know is part of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community or even just questioning, take some time to inform yourself, check you biases and ask yourself what support might look like for them.

We’re still in the growth phase of our clinic and we’re looking for physicians who can help us make it even better. If you can see yourself working on creating different programs to improve quality, improve access and reduce wait times, you would be joining 3 pediatricians, a registered psychologist, a nurse practitioner, locums and residents. The goal is for Pinecone to be a multidisciplinary, out-of-hospital center for excellence in pediatric care with strong ties to hospital and community. If that sounds appealing to you, we’d love to get coffee (or meet virtually!) and discuss in more detail what your goals and vision for your practice might be.

This was a lot of work! Considering how useful I’ve found our other handouts I’m sure it’ll get some mileage. Still trying to figure out the most effective strategy for information dissemination… parent courses? Asynchronous online education? Social media?… Off to work in a few minutes. More on this later! 🌲 ℹ️ 📝
