Therapy with children
Every child, every person, every family could use a little support.
We work with children of all ages (and their families) when emotions, behaviors, or life experiences become unmanageable or overwhelming. We see children one-on-one, but we always include some parent sessions, family sessions, or break up sessions into some combination to best meet the needs of the whole child and family system. With kiddos under the age of 8, we generally will meet primarily with parents and include some family sessions.
Some of the ways children benefit from therapy include:
Developing social-emotional skills, coping strategies, and tools for dealing with big feelings
Dealing with changes in the family like divorce, blended families, or the death of a family member
Improved sense of self-efficacy, self-worth and self-compassion
Closer, more connected family relationships
Healing from trauma, loss or other major life transitions
