YOUTH JUSTICE

The Centre is presently under contract with the Ministry of Children and Youth to provide counselling and mental health services for youth ages 12-17 who are on probation. This treatment encompasses individual, relationship, family and group counselling as dictated by client need.

“Picture It!”

“Picture It!” was developed as a model of group therapy for youth in conflict with the law, which incorporates verbal and expressive therapy using art, photography and story telling to explore personal and social issues.

The primary goals of the group include:

• To identify and express feelings using pictures, collages and scrapbooks.
• Increase self-awareness and understanding through group discussion of common issues related to the youth justice system.
• To provide a safe environment for adolescents to experience group connectedness and develop their ability to engage in meaningful relationships.
• To provide a forum for youth to relinquish self-protective strategies.
• To provide an opportunity for corrective therapeutic relationships with the group leaders and with each other.
