        A Tailored Approach for Teenage Mental Health Challenges 

        Teen years can be both tumultuous AND defining. When these growing pains sever the bond between teens and their loved ones, it’s essential to restore their support network in order for them to thrive. We chose the Aspen tree’s integrated root system to illustrate the necessity of this resource-sharing system.

        At Aspen Psychology in Calgary, our teen-centric counselling identifies, nurtures, and equips both teens and parents with the tools and understanding to mend important relationships and help teens participate more fully in their life.

        Youth mental health is just as important as their physical health, emotional health and overall wellbeing. It is critical that we provide our youth with access to not only health services, but also appropriate treatment and support.
