I have had the pleasure of working with hundreds of children mostly in a school setting helping then with issues that vary from ADHD to Depression and Anxiety. Many children come from 1 parent households due to divorce or other circumstances and often this is the main reason for seeking therapy or counseling. In spite of the, children are fun to work with as they have yet to develop any biases regarding therapy and go head strong into the work whether it’s by utilizing Play therapy, Art therapy, or simple Talk therapy.
Therapy with children is done in a non–rigid manner emphasizing fun and participation. I go where the kid goes in order to have them facilitate and thus empowering them in their own progress. Employing the help of family members in order to get the most out of the child is vital to any progress made. Communication skills, Coping strategies, and the ability to talk with their loves ones are just some of the skills we will work to attain.
