Personalized Therapy for Children & Teens To Build Lifetime Skills

Oftentimes we end up not only doing therapy with the child, but the family unit and parents or other family members individually as well. 

Therapy for children diagnosed with ADD/ADHD will consist of the use of CBT to strengthen executive functioning skills to help the client to better identify emotions behind their behaviors and learn to effectively regulate emotions.

For children dealing with adjustment disorders from major life transitions treatment for this diagnosis could include CBT psychotherapy, family therapy, and expressive arts therapy; all geared towards children to help them better identify and manage stress. Teaching them healthy coping mechanisms for anger and impulse control will benefit them not only for the specific situation they’re having trouble adjusting to, but for all of their life to follow.
