Child Therapy
Child Psychotherapy Encino, CA
Children communicate a lot through their behaviors. When your child or children are struggling with behavioral and emotional issues, it’s their way of communicating that something is not right and they need help.
Your child’s mental wellness is affected by their experience at home, family, school and friends, or when unresolved issues are still upsetting for them.
Children can have hard time identifying how they are feeling and how to express themselves appropriately, especially when they are frustrated and under stress. In these situations they tend to act out or shut down.
Feeling distressed can get difficult for you as a parent when your child’s issues persist and you don’t know how to help them anymore. It becomes stressful for everyone!
You and your child are not alone.
Child therapy can be very beneficial in helping to create a positive change for your child wellness.
