Child or Adolescent Issues

Strides in Psychotherapy

Psychologist, PSY.D.
Usually, when people think about psychotherapy, they imagine sitting on a couch in an office talking to a therapist about their problems. This style of therapy works just fine for many adults and adolescents. However, most younger children express themselves better through play than through words—for them, play is a primary method of communication. Even very bright and highly verbal children may find it difficult to talk about situations when strong feelings are involved. This is why they might shrug their shoulders, refuse to answer or say “I don’t know” when asked what is wrong. They might also “act out” or try to communicate to you through their behavior rather than through words, and sometimes these behaviors can get them into trouble at home or at school or be misunderstood by those around them. In addition, children often find it hard to sit still and talk for 45 minutes in a row, and they enjoy coming to therapy much more when play is a part of the equation.

Manhattan, New York therapist: Shara Concepcion, licensed clinical social worker
Child or Adolescent Issues

Shara Concepcion

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW MA
Being an adolescent is no walk in the park! Navigating teenage years can be challenging, with a whirlwind of emotions, peer pressures, and identity shifts to boot. If your teen has been dealing with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, family issues, or simply the stresses of everyday life, my goal is to support them in understanding and managing their big feelings. I'll use a variety of techniques from DBT and cognitive-behavioral strategies to get them on a more hopeful and fulfilling path. To learn more about scheduling a session for adolescent-focused treatment, call or email to schedule a free 15 minute consultation.

Children and adolescents often find it hard to communicate how they are feeling. Sometimes this comes out as eternalizing behaviors such as acting out or outwardly expressing anger.
