Many children go through a time in life when they seem to struggle in school and at home. For some children, these changes may seem to come out of the blue. For other children, they are a response to transitions such as the birth of a sibling, divorce, a move, or a death in the family. If children experience emotional, physical, or sexual abuse, they frequently are more able to heal from this event with the help of a therapist.

We work with parents of child clients in a team approach to therapy. This means that parents are a resource in their child’s treatment, and we assist parents with parenting concerns as needed, meeting without the child in monthly sessions separate from the child’s weekly sessions. In parent meetings, the parents help the therapist assess progress and continued challenges, and the therapist offers ideas and new skills in the face of old patterns and challenging behaviors. The therapist may also discuss referrals for the family to other services such as support groups, socialization groups, psychological assessments, or counseling for other family members.
