Therapy

We provide brief evidence-based therapies with children, adolescents, and parents. We provide individual therapy, group therapy, parent-child therapy, and parent coaching. 

Our treatment approach is eclectic and builds client’s strength and skills. Our therapies are skills-based, goal-oriented, and brief.

We specialize in evidence-based therapies including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques, mindfulness, Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), parent coaching, and social skills coaching. Through play, interactive exercises, discussion, creative multi-modal instruction, and psycho-education — we promote resilience, emotion regulation, empathy, assertiveness, coping tools, distress tolerance, self regulation, social problem solving, self care, healthy habits, and friendship-relationship building skills.

Our close-knit team of psychotherapists are compassionate, collaborative, and comprehensively trained. We help our clients cope with stress, and manage anxiety, anger, and learn effective communication, emotional expression, resolve conflicts, use brave tools, and practice friendship and social problem solving skills.

We appreciate neurodiversity. We support our clients through developmental life challenges including grief, loss, separation, and divorce. We specialize in working with multicultural and adoptive families.

 

Individual Therapy

We work with children and adolescents in individual therapy. Typically, the therapist and client meet regularly once a week. Each session is 50 minutes. We prefer to provide in person therapy but can offer telehealth sessions if needed.

Parent consultation is an essential part of therapy with children and adolescents. We often provide parent-child therapy or family therapy as well.

 

Group Therapy

Group Therapy is tailored and beneficial for children and adolescents who are motivated to practice their social emotional skills with compatible same-aged peers. Social emotional skills are taught and practiced with peers and a therapist. We strive to provide a safe and fun atmosphere in our small group. The small group creates natural opportunities to generalize one’s skills.

 

Parent Coaching

We work closely with our parents and help to refine and align parenting practices and enhance family harmony. Our therapists provide tailored interventions informed by empirically-supported parenting programs. Our Parent Coaching program is designed for couples, partners, co-parents, or single parents.
