Our approach
Chris Gilbert uses a down-to-earth, light-hearted and evidence-based approach that adapts to different ages. For children and teens, sessions combine Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Positive Behaviour Support and/or Behavioural Parent Training, tailored to address anxiety, emotion regulation, behavioural issues, depression, ADHD and autism. Chris brings an engaging and silly style that children enjoy, while maintaining a matter-of-fact approach that older clients appreciate. The philosophy emphasises a team approach, working collaboratively with the child or teen, their parents, and other professionals or school staff when desired. For those interested, Christian counselling is also available with evidence-based treatment integrated from a Christian perspective. Sessions are 50 minutes long and can be delivered in person, via telehealth or phone.
