OUR programs

Therapy for teens
CircleUp’s teen therapy program creates a safe and understanding environment for adolescents navigating the pressures of growing up, relationships, and identity. Our goal is to make quality mental health care accessible to every teen, regardless of financial means. Each teen receives personalized care that supports their emotional development and overall well-being.

Therapy for children
Our children's programs provide culturally grounded, developmentally appropriate mental health support for Israeli and Jewish children in Ontario. We use play-based and creative approaches to help children process emotions, build coping skills, and thrive during challenging times.

Psycho-educational Assessments
Our psychoeducational assessments provide an in-depth understanding of each child’s cognitive, academic, and emotional functioning. Using evidence-based tools, we identify learning strengths, areas of difficulty, and underlying factors that may affect performance at school. Following the assessment, we collaborate with families and educators to develop practical, individualized recommendations that support academic success, emotional wellbeing, and a positive learning experience.

Parental guidance
CircleUp’s parental guidance program provides a supportive and professional space for parents navigating the emotional and developmental needs of their children. We understand that raising children in a new country, or while coping with stress and change, can be deeply challenging. Our goal is to help parents build confidence, strengthen relationships, and foster emotional wellbeing at home. Through a tiered and subsidized model, CircleUp ensures that newcomers families in the Greater Toronto.
