Working with Your Child
Our methodology involves working with the patient in an integrated and personalized way so that we can design a support plan that incorporates not just child therapy and medication, but also a roadmap for healthy habits for overall well-being. Research tells us that experiences in the formative years of childhood contribute to the foundation for a person’s mental health, because they shape the child’s developing brain. Childhood is a complex and vulnerable time, wherein many factors can influence emotional well-being and behavior, including genetics, neurodiversity, family situation, school, personal relationships, and trauma. In our practice, we look at family dynamics, history, genetics, habits, diet, medical diagnoses, brain differences, and overall health in helping determine the best treatment options for your child. We emphasize strengths, growth mindset, and self-compassion, as we seek to empower children. Our goal is to provide comprehensive care and support for your family, and to give you the skills and tools to confidently move through this stage of life.
