Child Therapy

Child Therapy refers to the treatment of a wide range of issues and disorders that affect children and their families. Therapist who working with

Children use language and play to observe, assess, help, and treat children who are experiencing behavioral, emotional, social, and psychological difficulties. Child therapists work with children who are affected by mental health problems such as depression, aggression, phobias, anxiety, physical/psychosomatic disorders, learning difficulties, and behavioral problems. Therapists also support and guide children struggling to adjust to life-changing events. Divorce, death, moving, and changing schools can be very difficult for children to adjust to.

Therapy sessions may involve an individual child, a group of children, a family, or multiple families. In children and adolescents, playing, drawing, building, and pretending, as well as talking, are important ways of sharing feelings and resolving problems.
