Child Therapy

Empowering Your Child's Growth Through Therapy

As parents, we all want the best for our children. We dream of seeing them happy, confident,

and thriving in all aspects of life. But sometimes, the path to emotional well-being isn't as

straightforward as we hoped. If you've noticed changes in your child's behavior, mood, or ability

to cope with daily challenges, you're not alone. Many families face similar struggles, and many

families have turned to trusted child therapists to help find the answers.

Is Child Counseling The Right Path?

Our practice uses a combination of expertise and empathy to help children find their voice,

boost their confidence, and understand the big emotions that they may not be ready to explore

or communicate. Our approach to child therapy is deeply rooted in attachment-based care,

recognizing that secure, nurturing connections are fundamental to a child's mental health and

overall development.

We acknowledge that children have unique ways of walking through a world that feels brand

new to them. From a parents perspective, the act of being open and vulnerable is something

that takes time, practice, and patience. Back To Good Counseling strives to extend that same

courtesy to children who are learning - often for the first time - how to express themselves.

How Can Child Therapy Help?

You might be wondering if therapy is right for your child. Perhaps you've noticed:

● Frequent mood swings or intense emotions

● Difficulty making or maintaining friendships

● Changes in sleep patterns or appetite

● Decreased interest in activities they once enjoyed

● Struggles with academic performance

● Anxiety or fears that interfere with daily life

Child therapy is a great option to explore for children and parents alike. Working with our team is

like walking hand in hand with someone who can speak directly to children and adults in words

and actions that they can both comprehend. With evidence-based techniques and a

compassionate approach, we aim to bridge the gap between the challenges that a child may be

facing and the support that a parent can provide.

Through the act of drawing, playing, acting, or painting, we encourage children to practice

expressing and managing their thoughts and feelings. Working with a child therapist can provide

positive reinforcement and praise that will increase healthy coping mechanisms.

Why Choose Our Practice?

Choosing to move forward with therapy sessions can look different for each family. Children

often surprise adults with the amount of knowledge, insight, and lessons that they absorb -

whether the parent is aware of it or not.

Our practice aims to create a therapeutic space where a child can feel free to explore the

different ways they want to communicate or behave without the fear of getting in trouble with the

adults around them. We are here to provide insight on children that helps build a better bond

between the family, leading to more open communication and affirmative actions.

At Back to Good Counseling, we have clinicians trained in play therapy, art therapy, and various

somatic interventions. Therapists meet individually with a child or they can include parents as

part of the treatment session. Sometimes parents will meet with a therapist for coaching around

strategies they can use at home to promote healthy interactions and behavior.

Make The Change Today For A Brighter Tomorrow

Remember, you're not just investing in your child's present well-being but in their future success

and happiness. With the right support, children can develop resilience, emotional intelligence,

and coping skills that will serve them well throughout their lives. Get in touch with our practice to
