A question we hear a lot from parents: “What if they won’t talk?”

Honestly— it’s pretty common. 💛

With teens, we don’t jump straight into heavy conversations. We start by getting to know them— their interests, what matters to them and what helps them feel comfortable. No pressure, no forced talking.

Trust comes first and once that’s there, teens usually start opening up on their own.

Wondering if therapy could help your teen?

Back to school after March Break can bring a mix of emotions—for kids and parents. 🎒✨

While some children are excited to return to routine, others may feel anxious, tired, or a little out of sync. That’s completely normal.

Here are a few gentle ways to ease the transition:
• Re-establish routines gradually (especially sleep schedules!)
• Talk openly about feelings—big or small
• Keep mornings calm and predictable
• Celebrate small wins during the first week back

At Wellstead Child & Family Therapy, we’re here to support your family through these transitions with care and understanding. 💛

If your child is having a tough time getting back into the school rhythm, you’re not alone—and support is available.

Our Drayton office is now open and accepting new clients for child and teen counselling at Wellstead Child & Family Therapy.

Appointments are available Tuesdays and Wednesdays, including after-school times to make it easier for families.

If your child or teen could benefit from extra support, we’re here to help.

Week two of the Growing Together: Art & Friendship group is complete ✅ This week the girls painted small wooden boxes where they’ll keep all of the coping strategies they’re learning throughout the group. Each box is becoming a personal “toolbox” they can turn to when they need calm, confidence or a reminder of their strengths.

We’re already hearing such wonderful feedback from both participants and parents. 💛

So proud of this creative, thoughtful group of girls and the way they’re supporting one another as they grow together. 🎨✨

Therapy doesn’t always look like sitting and talking — sometimes it looks like a game of UNO.

At Wellstead Child & Family Therapy, we use games, art, and play to help kids and teens, feel comfortable, build connection, and express themselves in ways that feel natural. When young people feel safe and engaged, real growth can happen.

If you’ve been wondering whether therapy could help your child or teen, this is your sign to reach out.
