Ellen S Leventhal
Marriage and Family Therapist, MEd, MA, LMFT
Psychotherapy helps children and adolescents in a variety of ways. They receive emotional support, resolve conflicts with people, understand feelings and problems, and try out new solutions to old problems. Goals for therapy may be specific (change in behavior, improved relations with friends or family), or more general (less anxiety, better self-esteem). The length of psychotherapy depends on the complexity and severity of problems.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Therapy for child and adolescent issues, also called child therapy or teenage therapy, is a specialized form of counseling designed to satisfy children and adolescents' unique emotional, developmental, and behavioral requirements. Child and adolescent therapists are trained to work with young clients and provide a secure and supportive environment for them to express themselves, investigate their emotions, and overcome obstacles.
Child and adolescent therapy is highly individualized, with approaches varying according to the child's age, developmental level, and specific requirements. Therapists can employ techniques to engage juvenile clients and promote their emotional health and growth.
If you are concerned about the emotional health or behavior of a child or adolescent, a qualified child and adolescent therapist or counselor can provide valuable support and guidance for the child and his or her family.
