Child & Adolescent Treatment
Are you worried about your child’s anxiety?
Difficult feelings are normal for everyone, including the youngest people! Sometimes, though, it may seem like your child is having more than their fair share of:
- Fear
- Worry
- Irritability
- Restlessness
- Difficulty concentrating
- Trouble sleeping
- Headaches
- Stomachaches
- Lack of appetite
- Muscle tension
- Social withdrawal
- Repetitive behavior that is hard to understand or control
- Avoidance of familiar people and places or regular routines
If you are worried that your child has been showing more of these signs than they typically do, it can be helpful to talk to a professional. They may be symptoms of an emotional difficulty that could be serious, but treated effectively with therapy.

We understand that emotional struggles can be a difficult experience for both children and their caregivers, and that helping the child typically means working with the systems they are part of, as well.
