Child and Adolescent Therapy

Worried about your child? Has your child's behaviour become more difficult, are they displaying increased anger, anxiety, or sadness? Have they gone through a traumatic or difficult experience and are struggling to cope? Speaking with one of our child and adolescent clinicians may help.

 

Adult Therapy

Feeling anxious, down, or stuck? Unsure what will help? If you are having difficulty managing personal issues on your own, counselling could be the answer. Our skilled clinicians can help with a range of issues, such as anxiety, depression, managing emotions, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, life stresses, and relationship issues.

Our Values

At Aurora Psychology, we value respect, openness, adaptability, and evidence-based practice. Everyone is different, and therapeutic approaches that work for one person may not suit another. We have a range of clinicians with different approaches, interests, and skills, meaning that you can choose the clinician and approach that works best for you. We use our knowledge of evidence-based approaches to find the strategies and interventions that suit you, given your history, experiences, and current situation.
