Child Therapy

Our approach to therapy with children is dually focused: we teach children how to cope with their feelings, modify their behaviors, and ultimately overcome the issues that brought them to therapy. We also take it a step further by integrating parent coaching children reach their goals faster when parents get involved too. We are also very sensitive to the fact that your child’s experience with us may set the tone for how they view therapy in the future. We know that if we can create a safe, supportive, (and fun!) atmosphere, your child is more likely to seek out a therapist or other supportive adult at a time of need in the future. With each child we work with, we are hoping to plant the idea that therapy is a helpful tool to use, and to eliminate the possibility that stigma interferes with them seeking help later in life when they’re in college or living on their own.
