Dr. Marla Litvack is a PhD-level child psychologist serving children and teenagers in the West Island of Montreal area. Her practice focuses on two core areas of care: psychoeducational assessments and psychotherapy. For families navigating concerns about a child's learning, development, or emotional wellbeing, having access to a qualified child psychologist can make a meaningful difference in understanding next steps and finding the right support.

Psychoeducational assessments are a common reason families seek out Dr. Litvack's services. These evaluations help identify learning disabilities, attention difficulties, giftedness, and other cognitive or academic challenges that may be affecting a child's performance at school or day-to-day functioning. A thorough assessment typically involves standardized testing, clinical interviews, and a detailed written report that parents and educators can use to guide accommodations and interventions.

Psychotherapy services are also available for children and adolescents dealing with anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, social challenges, or other mental health concerns. Therapy sessions are tailored to the child's age and needs, giving young patients a safe space to work through what they are experiencing with professional guidance.

The practice is located in Pointe-Claire, Quebec, making it convenient for families across the West Island, including those coming from Pierrefonds, Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Kirkland, and surrounding communities. The office is situated along the Trans-Canada Highway corridor, which is generally accessible by car from much of the greater Montreal west end.

Families considering an appointment can expect an initial process that typically begins with a conversation about the child's history and the specific concerns prompting the referral. Whether the goal is to better understand a child's learning profile or to provide ongoing therapeutic support, the practice is set up to work with children and teens at different stages and with varying needs.

Dr. Litvack holds a PhD in her field, reflecting a high level of academic and clinical training in child psychology. For parents looking for professional mental health support for their child in the West Island of Montreal, her practice offers focused, specialized care in assessment and therapy.
