Teen Therapy, also known as “Teen Counselling” or “counselling for teenagers,” is a supportive process where teenagers (aged 13-19) work with a trained therapist to explore and address emotional, behavioural, or mental health challenges. It provides a safe, non-judgmental space for teens to talk about and work through issues like anxiety, depression, peer pressure, self-esteem, family conflicts, or school stress. Although 20% of adolescents and teens (12-18) will suffer from a serious mental health challenge, and 50% of all mental disorders begin by early adolescence, through therapy, teens may process negative past events, and gain coping skills, emotional insight, and strategies to navigate life’s challenges, fostering resilience and personal growth.

Dr. Cindi Saj RSW #14207

Dr. Cindi Saj PhD, RSW, MSW

In-Person in Williams Lake BC & Online Sessions Within BC

Hi, I’m Dr. Cindi Saj PhD, MSW, RSW! I’m a Registered Social Worker, EMDRIA-Certified EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA-Approved Consultant In-Training, professor for two universities, dual business owner, and co-author of Finding Your Purpose: A Guidebook to a More Meaningful Life and Finding Your Wellness: A Guidebook to Self-Care.

Having overcome many personal challenges, including addiction, I’m passionate about creating a better world for as many individuals and families I can. I integrate advanced EMDR (e.g., EMDR 2.0) with Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Indigenous Focusing-Oriented Therapy, Yoga for Trauma Recovery, and Clinical Hypnosis to support children, youth, and adults online or in-person in Williams Lake, BC.

When I’m not working, I’m likely traveling, spinning or cycling, doing yoga, learning new therapy modalities, listening to a podcast, or catching up on sleep (seriously I could talk for hours as to how much I love sleep!). I’m a cisgender female and hold a neurodivergent-friendly and an LGBTQIA2S+ positive space, bringing positivity and gratitude to every client I work with.
