Maybe you’ve noticed sudden changes in their behavior. The sweet, expressive child you love has suddenly become withdrawn, or your teenager's frustration now flares up into intense emotional outbursts over minor things. You might see them dreading Sunday nights, crying before school, or complaining of mysterious stomachaches and headaches when it's time to leave the house. Perhaps you are looking at a mountain of crumpled-up school assignments, hearing from their teachers about "impulsivity" or "inattention," or watching them completely shut down whenever you try to ask how their day went.

​

Growing up in today's world presents immense social, academic, and emotional pressures, and kids don't always have the words to explain what they are feeling. You don’t need to wait for a school crisis, an official clinical label, or a failing grade to know that your family needs a breath of fresh air. Wanting your child to feel lighter, more confident, and better understood is exactly where our work begins. Our therapists have extensive experience and training in working with children and adolescents, including in school and intensive outpatient settings.
