We believe that children are different from adults because their brain is still developing.  They are facing challenges that are unique to their age and can benefit from a treatment modality that is tailored not only to their needs but to their age as well. Therefore, we have therapists who specialize in working with children and adolescents and utilize the most up-to-date interventions to help them become their best, happy selves. 

If you are not sure whether therapy can help your child or teen, here are some symptoms that may indicate that therapy could be helpful:

– Aggressive behavior towards other children or adults – Anxious and persistently worried   – A drop in academic performance – Frequent nightmares or difficulty sleeping  – Changes in eating habits or dramatic weight gain or loss – Increase in physical complaints despite their physicians find them healthy.

– Isolating or withdrawing from family, friends, and activities they previously enjoyed-
Alcohol or drug use – Self-harming behaviors such as cutting – Performing obsessive
tasks like hand washing or checking the door – In younger children, bedwetting
regression – Poor self-esteem – Defiant behavior – Restlessness and difficulty staying on
