Parenting is one of the most challenging things in life, particularly during adolescent years, when the teen starts to push back and test their boundaries and explore their own voice. These slides help us reframe some of the most challenging teen behavior. Because once we understand the “why” it opens up door for validation and connection, rather than disconnection.

Fall can feel like a magical time, full of colours and changes. It can also feel very busy in our minds, as we plan for the year ahead. At Mindful Kids Psychology & Wellness Centre we love creating opportunities to reflect in a fun way with the kids we work with. Here’s an example of one activity that we’ve been enjoying. After we collect leaves, we practice placing our thoughts on them and connecting back to our feelings (each feeling is a different glitter colour). It’s a great way to slow down and reflect on our thoughts and feelings! You can try this at home with your kids as a way to help them build some reflection and slow down their minds! 🍁

October is Occupational Therapy month! 🧡

At Mindful Kids Psychology & Wellness Centre, our Occupational Therapy (OT) services are designed to help children build confidence, independence, and joy in the activities that matter most - from play and school to self-care and emotional regulation. 🪷

Through personalized assessments and play-based therapy, our Occupational Therapists work with families to identify strengths, support growth, and create goals that fit each child’s unique needs and pace.

🌍 World Mental Health Day | October 10th 💚

Today, especially, we recognize that mental health is an essential part of overall well-being. This year’s theme reminds us of the importance of intensifying and investing in efforts to create a world where mental health is valued, protected, and accessible to all.

At Mindful Kids Psychology & Wellness Centre, we believe that creating space for open conversations, reducing stigma, and supporting one another can make a lasting difference. Together, we can build a community where everyone feels seen, supported, and valued. 💛

Let’s continue to check in with ourselves, reach out to those around us, and remember, you are not alone. 🌱

🧡 Today, we honour National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We remember the children who never returned home, honour Survivors, and hold their families and communities in our hearts.

As a clinic dedicated to supporting children and families, we acknowledge the ongoing impact of residential schools and the importance of creating spaces rooted in safety, respect, and healing.

This day is also a reminder for all of us to listen, learn, and take steps, both big and small, toward reconciliation.

The profession of psychologists in Ontario is at crossroads, and the public needs to be aware of these proposed changes by our college. It is important that we continue to preserve the high standards for psychologists that have ensured high quality mental health care across Ontario. Please scroll through these slides to better understand the situation and what the public at large can do to support continued high quality mental health care from psychologists.
