A MESSAGE FROM JON

As parents, we yearn for our children to be confident, vibrant and have strong relationships with others! Along the way our children may experience difficulties fulfilling this ideal.

We worry if they will be able to function and meet the challenges ahead. Your child may be struggling with anxiety, depression, peer interactions, coping with strong emotions and other difficult situations.

In fact, these needs may be causing impairment in our relationships with our child, our family and also with school.

As a child therapist and clinical social worker for over 25 years, I can help you and your child unlock solutions and discover strengths that improve emotional functioning, promote healing and build stronger relationships.

I look forward to starting this journey with you!

School is Starting! Are You and Your Child Mentally Prepared?

Reluctance to go back to school is completely normal for children.  Just as adults relish vacations, kids too hate to give up their preferred pursuits or control over their time.
