Child Therapy

Somewhat like the effects of throwing a stone into still water, I begin to resolve your child’s problems by working from the center out; that is, individually, with your child, and, then, gradually outward by making adjustments in the way that relationships occur between your child and particular components of his or her community.

Nevertheless, I don’t do therapy alone. After years of treating some of the most difficult cases around, I’ve quickly learned that making lasting changes in a child’s life requires the active participation of many of the individuals and social institutions that interact with your child on a day-to-day basis, such as family, school, peer group and community. My job is to act as the catalyst for change within this system.

In addition to individual therapy, I may apply various community interventions, such as arranging and attending special school meetings designed to resolve behavioral problems and enhance academic performance.

Specific psychotherapy treatments may include: Cognitive Behavior Therapy,
Reality Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Play Therapy, Multi-systemic Therapy and Systems Theory.

Please note that I also work within a large network of professionals that can provide any type of care, such as medication management, inpatient care, psychological testing, and educational therapy.
