Children rarely say "I am anxious." It comes out as stomachaches, meltdowns, trouble at school, clinginess, sleep that has fallen apart, or a child who used to be one way and is now another. Child therapy gives that somewhere to go.
Sessions look different from adult counseling — more play, drawing, and activity, less sitting and talking. Parents are part of it, because most of what helps happens at home between appointments.
What to expect
A short screening form or phone call from a parent or guardian.
A callback from a real person, usually within one business day.
A first appointment that includes you, so we hear the history from you as well.
Sessions built around your child's age — play and activity, not an interview.
Regular check-ins with you about what to try at home.
If something has changed, that's reason enough to call.
