Lisa Vespico-Mull
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, SAP, ICAADC
I have worked with children and adolescents for many years. I really enjoy working with adolescents and am typically able to gain rapport easily. The youngest child I will see will be ten or above due to my services being online only at this time. I always involve parents in the treatment and progress as well as diagnosis and impressions when allowed of course by the teenager. I believe it is important to create a safe space for the child or teenager to share but I also believe that family involvement is essential.

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.
