Is your child grappling with anxiety, impacting the overall well-being of your family? Do you find yourself drained and frustrated while striving to maintain patience and provide assistance? Are you hopeful that someday your child will finally experience a sense of calm? In today's world, children are increasingly feeling stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed. Recognizing these challenges, we know that children and families flourish with support from our seasoned counselors. At Counseling & Academic Services, LLC, we offer child-friendly therapy services designed to support the entire family.
Our process starts with a thorough intake session with parents. Child-therapy sessions then target pediatric psycho-education, emotional vocabulary, and regulation skills. We make therapy enjoyable through play, art techniques, bibliotherapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Finally, we guide parents in implementing learned strategies for ongoing support.
We pride ourselves on offering a comfortable, child-centered approach, fostering an environment where your family can discover calm. With over 20 years of experience, child-focused therapy is our passion. Take the first step toward finding calm together—call today for a free 15-minute consultation, and let's embark on this journey together.
