Great news! Our team is growing and every time we add a new clinical team member it means our waitlist shrinks and we have almost immediate availability in newly opened booking calendars! If you or someone you know has a child, teen, or post-secondary student in need of a psychoeducational assessment (for exploring the presence of learning differences) and/or to assess for ADHD, give us a call!

**Trigger Warning - su***de discussion**

We were never meant to go it alone. It is true that it takes a village, and we are here to be part of your village. Recently, in our community, a young person took their own life. I know, firsthand the devastation that that creates for all of those left behind. And even if your son or daughter did not know, the child who has died, these kinds of experiences can often leave kids and parents unsettled. If you are feeling like you need a little bit of support, either as a parent, or as an adolescent, please reach out to our office and we will find a way to make sure that you are taken care of. Finances should not be a barrier, and so, even if you do not have the funds to pay for a session, our team members have made themselves available to make sure your needs do not go unmet. Please call 778-294-8732 or email info@thenorthstarclinic.com. You are not alone.

Please feel free to share with your local community if we can be of support.
