Child & Adolescent Therapy

Children and teenagers face unique challenges as they grow and develop. Our child and adolescent specialists use developmentally appropriate, engaging therapeutic techniques to help young people navigate difficult emotions, build resilience, and develop healthy coping skills.

Issues We Help With

• Anxiety and worry
• Depression and mood changes
• ADHD and executive function challenges
• Behavioral difficulties at home or school
• Bullying and social challenges
• Family changes (divorce, blended families, new siblings)
• Grief and loss
• Self-harm and suicidal ideation

Our Methods

For younger children (ages 5-12), we often use play therapy, art therapy, and social stories to help them express and process their experiences. For adolescents, we integrate CBT, DBT skills training, and motivational interviewing in a way that respects their growing independence while providing the guidance they need.

Family Involvement

We believe that family involvement is key to a child's therapeutic progress. Parents are active partners in the treatment process, receiving regular updates and learning skills to support their child's growth at home.
