When the path gets unclear, we bring in the right guide

Every child’s development unfolds at its own pace, but when concerns arise, you deserve answers that are clear, compassionate, and medically sound. At HUGS (Healing Uniquely Gifted Souls), we offer expert consultations for families who may need deeper insight into their child’s growth, behaviour, or learning needs.

Whether you’re at the start of your journey or at a confusing crossroad, we help you access the right specialist at the right time, all in a setting that feels familiar, safe, and supportive.

When should you consider an expert consultation?

If you're unsure whether your child’s behaviour is typical or something to monitor

If therapy or school interventions haven't made enough difference

If you're seeing developmental delays but don't know why

If you want clarity before a formal diagnosis

If your instincts say something’s off, even if others disagree

You don’t need to wait for a crisis. You just need the right perspective.

The Experts We Work With

We make sure you meet the expert most relevant to your child’s current needs, and we’re here to support you before, during, and after that consultation.

General Pediatrician

Sometimes, the first step is simply ruling out physical or routine health concerns. A pediatrician can help assess your child’s growth milestones, check for any red flags, and guide you on basic next steps. This is often where many families begin when they notice something feels different.

Common concerns addressed:

Growth delays or appetite changes
Recurrent illnesses impacting learning or behaviour
Sleep disturbances
Early screening for autism, ADHD, or sensory issues

We work with pediatricians who understand developmental nuances, not just medical checklists.

Developmental Pediatrician

When concerns become more specific, such as delays in walking, talking, or social interaction, a developmental pediatrician steps in. They take a closer look at how your child’s brain and body are growing together, and how that affects daily function.

They evaluate:

Speech and language delays
Difficulty with play, social bonding, or transitions
Fine and gross motor delays
Signs of ADHD, autism, or learning disorders

This consultation is especially helpful when you need clarity before moving forward with formal therapies or school accommodations.

Pediatric Neurologist

Some challenges may stem from deeper neurological issues. A pediatric neurologist helps assess complex concerns that don’t always have visible symptoms, such as seizures, sensory processing difficulties, or unexplained developmental delays.

They may support families dealing with:

Epilepsy or seizure-like episodes
Sensory sensitivity or unexplained motor tics
Regression in milestones
Cerebral palsy or other movement-related conditions

Neurology consultations at HUGS (Healing Uniquely Gifted Souls) are facilitated in a calm, child-friendly setting, not a hospital environment, to reduce anxiety for both children and parents.

Child Psychologist

If emotional regulation, anxiety, or social challenges are impacting your child’s day-to-day life, a child psychologist can offer an in-depth behavioural or emotional assessment. They use age-appropriate tools to understand what your child may not be able to express in words.

Psychological evaluations can help with:

School anxiety or refusal
Mood swings or persistent sadness
Attention and concentration difficulties
Relationship or peer conflicts
Diagnostic support for autism or behavioural disorders

We also work closely with our in-house therapists to ensure the psychologist’s recommendations translate into clear, actionable support plans.

A seamless, supportive experience

At HUGS (Healing Uniquely Gifted Souls), expert consultations aren’t just about scheduling a visit. We:

Prepare you beforehand so you know what to expect
Stay present and involved during the process (when appropriate)
Help interpret the diagnosis or assessment afterward
Coordinate next steps, whether that’s therapy, referrals, or educational support

We’re also mindful of your time and emotions, consultations are offered under one roof, with minimal wait times, and on all days except Fridays, including weekends.

Clarity begins with the right guide

You don’t need to have everything figured out. If something feels off in your child’s behaviour, development, or communication, we’ll help you find the right expert to start answering those questions. Gently. Clearly. Without fear.

Whether you’re seeking a second opinion or starting from scratch, we’re here to listen to you, and to your child.
