Kailyn Bobb
Psychologist, PsyD
Addressing child and adolescent issues involves a holistic and collaborative approach. Providing a supportive environment and open communication with parents, caregivers, and teachers is crucial. Therapeutic interventions, such as play therapy, art therapy, or family therapy, can help children and adolescents express their emotions and develop coping skills. Educational support and accommodations may be necessary to address any learning or behavioral challenges.

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.
