SERVICES FOR CHILDREN AND TEENS

Wait times vary. Dietitian appointments are usually booked within 2 weeks of the first point of contact while therapy appointments can be up to 8 weeks. Email us to find out the most accurate wait time.

Our approach depends on the age of the child and the capacity of their support system. For many, Family-Based Therapy is suitable and aligns with best practice recommendations. For others, we may use a more eclectic approach with influences from Family-Based Therapy, Emotion-Focused Family Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. In all instances, we tailor the treatment approach to the needs of the individual and meet them where they are.

This is such a tricky question and the answer is always “it depends”. For some clients, we only work together for a short period of time. For others, we are connected for a year or more. Book a free consultation call our Clinical Lead to get a more accurate estimate.

We strongly encourage parents of a child with an eating disorder to be involved in appointments with Change Creates Change. Depending on the age of the child, we may ask parents to step out for a duration of the session and vise versa.

Not necessarily. All our clinicians offer afternoon and evening appointments, however these fill up quickly. If you require these times, book ahead!

All of our services are provided by either a “Registered Dietitian”, “Registered Psychotherapist” (sometimes referred to as Counsellor by insurance companies). Call your insurance company for more information about your plan’s coverage.

We also offer direct billing.

In addition to the service provided, clients also benefit from:

• An interprofessional health team that collaborate on a client's care plan each week at clinical rounds
• Coordination of care with all external health care providers involved in client care
• Team/family meetings scheduled throughout our work together
