You do not have to figure out the next step alone

You may be looking for answers after noticing changes in your child, support for a teen who is struggling, or a safe place to work through anxiety, depression, trauma or a major life transition. You may also be wondering whether an ADHD, Autism or psychoeducational assessment is the right next step. Creative Minds brings psychology, counselling and social work together so you can start with one conversation. We will listen to what is happening, explain the options and help you choose a path that fits your needs.

Support available in Coquitlam

Child and play therapy — developmentally appropriate support that may include child-centred play therapy, sand tray therapy and creative approaches.
Counselling for teens — a collaborative space to work on anxiety, emotional regulation, self-esteem, trauma, neurodiversity and life challenges.
Counselling for adults — support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships and life transitions.
Psychological assessments — comprehensive Autism, ADHD, cognitive, academic and psychoeducational assessment options for children and adults.
Parent coaching and behavioural consultation — practical, family-focused strategies for behaviour, communication, coping and everyday routines.

Care that sees the whole person—and the whole family

Our approach is neuroaffirming, trauma-informed and evidence-based. We do not fit people into a standard mould. Your assessment, treatment direction and practical tools are shaped around the person in front of us and the family system around them. Because assessment and counselling are available within the same practice, families can move from understanding what is happening to receiving ongoing support without starting over with a new clinic.
