Child and Adolescent (Teen) Therapy

Are you worried about your child's emotional well-being?

Has your child been struggling with social interactions or school performance?

Are you looking for ways to support your child's development and happiness?

 

If you're experiencing these concerns, you're not alone. Many parents feel helpless as they struggle to understand and support their children's emotional needs, and it's natural to want to find ways to help them succeed and be happy.

 

Lynn and her Associates Bring a Wealth of Experience to Therapy

As a school social worker with over 10 years of experience, I have a deep understanding of the challenges children face in school and in their personal lives. I have served as a case manager and led my school's intervention team, and I have a strong background in the IEP/504 process. In my current practice, I use all of these experiences to advocate for my clients and help them develop the social skills and executive functioning habits they need to thrive both inside and outside of the school setting.

 

Child and Adolescent (Teen) Counseling Can Help Your Child Develop Essential Skills

Child counseling can be an effective way to help your child develop essential skills like problem-solving, communication, and emotional regulation. It can be a safe space for your child to express their thoughts and feelings.  Building the family alliance is also prioritized.

 

Understanding Your Child's Needs

As a parent, it can be difficult to know how to best support your child's emotional and mental well-being. Children often have a hard time communicating their needs and feelings, which can leave you feeling frustrated and unsure of how to help. That's where child counseling can be so valuable. By working with a trained therapist, your child can learn how to better express themselves and understand their emotions, which can lead to improved communication and relationships with you and others.
