Help Your Son Thrive  

Christian Counselling for Teen Boys

About me

How I can Help

Does your son struggle with his emotions, addictive behaviours and his personal relationships? Are you worried about his future because of the choices he's making, and the fact that he doesn't open up about what he's thinking and feeling? If that describes you, I can help!
I help teen boys to build confidence, develop practical coping tools, and create stronger ties to faith and family. In individual sessions I'll help your son become aware of his thoughts and feelings, and take proactive steps to achieve his goals. I also include parents in the process so you can feel more connected and united as a family.
Parenting a teen boy who is struggling is challenging, but you don’t have to figure this out alone. I can help your son get out of the problems that are keeping him stuck so that he can work towards achieving his goals and pursue God's will for his life.

My Approach

icon
  • My approach is built on Christian principles combined with the insights of psychology. If your son wants to incorporate faith into our sessions I will gladly do so, but I won't press the issue if he is feeling alienated from Christianity.

icon
  • I believe that parental involvement is essential for young men to grow and mature. I'll complement individual sessions with your son with parent coaching and family sessions to help you connect as a family and face your challenges as one.

icon
  • My approach is structured and goal focused so your son won't get lost or confused. I'll connect everything we do in session to his goals so he can see the value gained from each session and celebrate his successes along the way.

icon
  • I won't shy away from telling him the truth, but in a way that challenges him and draws him closer. I believe healthy confrontation is essential for growth in relationships and maturity. I welcome my clients to tell me if anything isn't working so we can adjust course.

Testimonials

Stories from my Clients

I love helping my clients change their lives for the better.

"David’s coaching and pointers were based on tried-and-true science and experience – they helped me personally to stop and listen to my teenager when I was just trying to parent them as when they were younger, which was causing conflict.
Over the next few months, I was able to better understand and communicate with my son, which improved our relationship and minimized the bad feelings.”

J.W. (Father of 14 year old)

"I came to David feeling like I had completely lost my son and didn’t know how to move forward. David helped me focus on rebuilding our relationship with concrete, weekly steps.
At first it was slow and frustrating, but within a few months I noticed real changes—in my son’s behaviour and in my own ability to connect and empathize. Things became less chaotic, and hope returned to our home. I would highly recommend David as a counsellour. He gave us insight and helped us begin the process of family healing."

M.K. (Mother of a 19 year old)
