Child or Adolescent Issues
Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Children and adolescents may face a multitude of challenges stemming from factors such as family dynamics, peer pressure, school-related stress, or traumatic events. When individuals encounter these obstacles, I aim to provide a supportive environment where they can freely express their emotions and experiences. I assist them in comprehending their feelings and acquiring effective coping strategies. Furthermore, I engage both the young individual and their family members, to enhance communication and foster stronger familial bonds, which are pivotal in addressing these challenges.
