Getting Started: How to Access Services

Do you have questions about a child or youth's learning, development, behaviour, or mental health? Are you looking for Psychology assessment or treatment services for a child or youth? Or, would you like to speak with a Psychology professional to figure out what services may be a fit?

At our Clinic, Graduate Student Clinicians provide Psychological Services to address learning, development, behaviour, or mental health for children and youth. We are affiliated with the School and Applied Child Psychology Program at Western, and we have particular expertise in school-related issues and in working with schools. 

For most services, we start with an intake meeting with caregivers and children/youth as appropriate. In fall 2024, there is no charge for this meeting. To have an intake meeting, we MUST have all health care decision makers present or agreeing to services. Usually, this means an adolescent or whoever has custody of a child.  

During the intake meeting, we will discuss your needs and help you figure out if any Psychology Services would be helpful. You do not have to continue with services after the intake meeting.
