Our Services

Teen Counselling Hover Box
As children grow into teenagers, their ability to express themselves is enhanced, and therefore counselling must also change to engage teens with their new skills. The goal is to help teens understand their own brain and nervous system and how the way these function affects the way they think, feel and act.

Parent Counselling and Consultation Hover Box
Parents and guardians know their children well, but may feel ill-equipped to figure out the best way to approach an issue or challenge in parenting their child. Parent Consultation can help a parent or guardian determine the strategy or approach or plan that will be the best fit for the child and the family.

Psychology Assessment Hover Box
At RMPS, we offer a wide variety of psychological assessments such as learning disability, gifted, ADHD, Autism, behaviour, and independent living. Our talented assessment team possess skills to work with children, youth and adults. Regardless of the type of assessment, the goal is always to better understand the individual and with that information, make tailored recommendations of next steps and strategies.

Play Therapy Hover Box
Children may not have the language or conscious awareness to express their feelings or to work through tough experiences. Play therapy allows the child to process and integrate their experiences, learn about themselves, express feelings, modify behavior, develop problem-solving skills, and learn a variety of ways of relating to others.

Child Counselling Hover Box
At RMPS our approach to therapy is grounded in the latest research about the brain and nervous system. Upon recognition of the initial discovery, our counsellors apply appropriate psychological theories and approaches that are tailored to the child and the specific goals for therapy.

Neurothreapy Hover Box
Neurotherapy is direct training of brain function, by which the brain learns to function more efficiently. Basically, it is using a computer to observe the brain in action from moment to moment. Then, that information is shown back to the person by way of sound (beeps or other sounds), or visually such as the screen fading or intensifying. The brain learns from this and learns how to make changes to get the feedback. The changes to the way the brain is functions in session are also experienced in day-to-day life, which is what helps the person to experience improvements such as improved sleep, focus, calm, etc.
