I prefer to use a team approach with the child’s parent or guardian in finding solutions that lead to their success.
Does your child get easily annoyed or nervous? Have difficulty handling frustration? Argue and throw tantrums? Maybe they often appear angry or you notice they are always putting the blame on others? Are these symptoms affecting not only your child but you and others in your household? Taking care of a child as he grows is certainly a formidable task. The various parent- child relationship problems one faces during this journey can be difficult. Realizing that children are trying their best to cope as well, is the key to being understanding, calm, and caring in helping take care of their problems.

I work with youth and adults with child trauma by doing Inner Child Healing and finding the root cause of pain.
If you find yourself feeling anxious, angry, sad, frustrated, overwhelmed, and tired I can assist with tools to help you alleviate some of these symptoms. Many times we feel so overwhelmed that we do not have or find the strength to cope. We struggle to find solutions to either manage our daily life or a major life event, and we feel that our world just crumbles. Sometimes we have family issues, struggle with boundaries, communication, and find no direction or drive to change our lives. If any of these issues sound familiar, I can help you find balance so that you can live life in a healthy and harmonious way.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Stuart, FL provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Stuart build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
