Children Counseling

Life events can be overwhelming for children. If your child is struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, grief over a loss, bullying, or low self-esteem, know that there is hope.

In the first session, we meet with you and your child to discuss your concerns, explain the counseling process, and collaboratively set goals for treatment. If your child is comfortable, we’ll offer them a safe and secure place to talk privately about what’s bothering them. We use age-appropriate methods to help them manage their feelings, including art, play, and creative activities.

Children learn by doing, and play is an essential part of therapy. We incorporate drawing, playing, and talking to help your child develop positive thought patterns and behaviors. As a caregiver, your involvement is crucial; we often invite you to participate in therapy to learn alongside your child, so you can support them at home. The most effective therapy happens when both child and caregiver are engaged in the learning and coping process outside of the office.
