Child and Adolescent Therapy
Children are wonderful, marvelous, amazing beings. They are full of energy, wonder and awe. They are creative, they are imaginative and they are explorers. ​​
​
Sometimes all these qualities are hard to see because of the child's inability to focus, follow directions, make friends, or connect to their families in a positive way. They may have so much anxiety or sadness that their smiles cannot shine through, and the only part of them you see is anger and rage.
​
Through Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy, your therapist at The Center will help to teach your child how to shift their thinking which ultimately changes their feelings and then their behaviors. The Center also provides psycho-education around neurobiology, social skills training, and executive functioning support to children struggling to connect to friends, control their temper or stay organized due to the symptoms of ADHD, Autism or Anxiety.
The Center provides therapeutic information in visual form so that the child can get the messages through their eyes and through their ears. At The Center, the therapist will use games, nature, play, and yoga movements so the child's whole body is involved and experiences the therapeutic process.
​
When working with your therapist at The Center, your child can express their fears, their worries, and their wishes and feel relief from what is ailing them. They will learn what their strengths are and learn how to act in ways that keeps those strengths visible to those around them. They will also learn how to identify what is hard and seek out support. Together we will work to bring peace and harmony back into the lives of your wonderful child.
