Our Child Therapists Help Kids

w

Clearly Communicate Feelings

We help children clearly communicate their feelings (anger, anxiety, worry, etc) so they can articulate what they need so parents don’t have to guess and can quickly provide support for their child.

Manage Big Emotions

We equip children with the tools to manage big emotions and find creative ways to self-soothe so what used to take minutes or even hours, now only takes a few moments. 

Increase Relational Capacity

We help children strengthen their listening skills, communication tools, and their ability to resolve problems and conflicts with family members and peers.
