We offer compassionate individual therapy that are tailored for each child’s unique needs.

We specialize in helping children with:

AD/HD (Inattention, Hyperactivity, Impulsivity)

Depression (low mood, sadness, lack of interest in play or doing things that they used to enjoy)

Oppositional Behavior (aggressive, uncooperative, hostile towards peers, parents and grownups in general)

Whatever your child’s difficulties may be, our therapy provides a safe space to understand what’s going on in their lives and support them to feel well again.

Children with mental and emotional difficulties encounter challenges that impact their well-being on the daily level.

They have trouble regulating their emotions. This results in unmanageable mood swings, anger, anxiety and frustration.

They have trouble connecting with their peers, parents and authority figures.

It’s difficult for them read social cues and communicate their needs.

The general challenge as children having mental and emotional challenges is that they feel like they don’t belong, suffer low self-esteem and can’t process and communicate what’s going on in their inner life easily.

As parents of children who are emotionally and mentally challenged, you’re also overwhelmed.

Home life feels often disruptive with intense emotional ups and downs. You may feel dread and guilt for not being able to help your children enough.

It’s ok and very brave to reach out and seek help. It’s a step towards breaking out of a helpless cycle and creating an intentional future for your children and your family as a whole.

A caring intervention with our therapist can lead to positive outcomes for both your child and the whole family.

Together, we will identify what their unique challenges are and depending on their needs, we’ll help them learn new coping skills, show them how to communicate their needs better, and help foster self-confidence.

Working with children requires from parents an openness and willingness to create a nurturing environment at home to integrate their new level of awareness and skills that they learn in therapy.

FAQ

  • Common signs may include changes in behavior, becoming withdrawn, excessively clingy, or unusually irritable could suggest underlying emotional distress. Pay attention to frequent mood swings, intense anxiety, persistent sadness, or uncontrollable anger may signify inner turmoil. Difficulty in coping with everyday stressors can be indicative of underlying issues in their academic and social environments.

  • Establishing rapport between the child and clinician is vital. Early sessions will focus on building trust, creating a safe space, and understanding the child's interests and preferences.

    Therapeutic techniques vary depending on your child's needs and age. These may include play therapy, art therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), or family therapy, all tailored to address your child's specific challenges and goals.

  • Reinforcing your child's progress in therapy at home is crucial for their growth and development. We recommend relaxation techniques, like deep breathing or visualization, to help them manage stress and anxiety better. Implement positive reinforcement, model healthy coping skills, establish routine check-ins, and set aside time to talk with your child about how they're feeling and help them recognize and understand their feelings. This shows them you care and reinforces the importance of therapy.
