MENTAL HEALTH CONDITIONS THAT CAN BE TREATED WITH CHILD THERAPY
Every child faces challenges as they grow—whether it’s big emotions, changes at home or school, or struggles they can’t quite put into words. Child therapy offers a safe, supportive space where kids can explore their feelings, build confidence, and develop healthy ways to cope.
Trauma
A child’s/teen’s experience of trauma often affects the whole family. Often, parents aren’t aware that a trauma has occurred, or that their child has perceived an event as traumatic. We will work together to help you navigate your child’s emotional pain and your own responses to what happened.
It is important to know a child may feel traumatized even if their experience was not life threatening. We can help you support your child in processing the situation(s) to help them make sense of the event(s) so that it can become something that happened to them, not something that defines them.
Childhood Anxiety
Does your child refuse to participate in age-appropriate activities? Does your child get frustrated easily? Perhaps he has challenges with transitions or new situations, or it may be that he is struggling with feeling stuck in solving his problems.

This likely means your child has a challenge managing his worries. Our team helps you and your child discover what the root of the anxiety is, and how to rise above it in a healthy, supportive environment.
Teen Anxiety And Depression
Is your teen not the only one in the house feeling “annoyed” lately? Teens often express anxiety and depression through irritability, anger, and a quick temper. This often leaves parents feeling annoyed too! You might even feel like your teen is ungrateful for all that you do for them.
We will collaborate to help foster more peace in the house. We understand that teens can be challenging, sarcastic, and blunt when asked to push the boundaries of their emotional comfort zones. We are prepared and able to match these challenging attitudes in a firm and nonjudgmental way that holds them accountable, but is well received by them.
We will create goals to support your teen in balancing independence with dependence on you as their parent, along with supporting the development of more constructive ways to communicate his/her emotions and needs.
ADHD
Children with ADHD often struggle with more than just their attention/ focus. Because their behavior is often disruptive to peers, children with ADHD tend to have significant struggles with social relationships.
Impulsivity, lack of attention, lack of focus and frequent movement can be overwhelming to peers who don’t also have ADHD. Helping your youth discover the areas that affect them at home, school, and with peers helps your child/ teen have better overall outcomes.
Our team helps you and your child discover how to gain control and build executive functioning skills that foster positive self esteem and empower them to be successful.

Growth & Progress From Our Patients
Support, connection, and growth—here’s how counseling made a difference.
“Mary has been great for my 6-year-old son in helping him work through his anger and frustration. We had tried another therapist and saw little to no improvement but after a few weeks with Mary things started to turn around. She does a great job interacting with both him and us. I highly recommend her!”
- Christy B.
“Patience is key with Mary, she is great at making everyone feel comfortable and safe. My kids loved her and look forward to further meetings.”

fAQS ABOUT CHILD THERAPY
How do I know if my child needs a therapist?
If your child is showing signs of emotional distress, changes in behavior, or struggling at home or school, it may be time to seek support. A therapist can help identify what’s going on and offer tools for healing and growth.
How to tell if a child has trauma?
Signs of trauma can include nightmares, irritability, withdrawal, intense fears, or sudden changes in behavior. If these signs persist after a stressful event, it’s worth talking to a mental health professional.
How to tell when a child is struggling emotionally?
Look for mood swings, sleep issues, changes in appetite, or social withdrawal. If your child seems overwhelmed, unusually quiet, or reactive, it could signal emotional difficulty.
How do you know if your child has a personality disorder?
Personality disorders are rarely diagnosed in young children and usually only considered in older teens. A thorough evaluation by a licensed mental health provider is needed to explore ongoing emotional or behavioral patterns.
At what age do mental health issues start?
Mental health issues can emerge as early as preschool age, though symptoms may look different in young children. Early support can make a big difference in long-term wellbeing.
