Children’s Therapy

I’ll start by saying this…

Kids are AWESOME!

But they struggle.

And that struggle usually takes the form of fear and social anxiety.

That’s when they act out.

Maybe you’ve been seeing it for years.

Or they’re angry, frustrated, or disobedient all of a sudden.

And if they’re harming themselves, you’re doubly scared.

You can’t help but wonder what’s behind it all.

You might be thinking…

… that your child’s behavior is a reflection of your parenting.

But your child’s fears and anxieties can come from any number of places: media, school experiences, traumatic events, family issues…

It can even be inherited… and we all know we can’t control our genes.

So, what can be done??

There are many ways to intervene with children, and they are usually quite receptive.

They don’t know how to express themselves fully yet, but their minds are aware. And the mind is the key to everything else.

Our first session will help us warm up to each other. We’ll talk about the challenges faced, get your and your child’s perspective on what’s going on, and discuss your goals for therapy.

During therapy, we may do expressive arts or play therapy with your child.

Family therapy will be included to help caregivers continue at home what’s learned in our session together.

Don’t wait.

Children can change fast, so early intervention is key.

Most of the time, within a few sessions, my youngest clients report feeling better, their parents confirm their behavior has changed, and what they were most worried about coming in turns out to be a short-term concern.

And if you need more help, I have a diverse network of colleagues like behavioral-developmental pediatricians, child psychiatrists, tutors, and other specialists.

Let’s work together to put your child back on track!
