Child or Adolescent Issues
Kelda Hartman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Do you feel like you don’t really know your child or teen anymore? Is your child or teen acting differently than they used to? Do you feel like something is going on inside of them but they won’t open up to you? Are they acting out in ways that are disruptive at school, home or in life in general? If your attempts to get through to them leave you feeling more and more frustrated and lost, sometimes bringing in a caring professional can help. Getting your child or teen the help they need is the most loving thing to do. Whatever the reason you are considering counseling for your child, teen or family, I believe I can help. No matter how wonderful a parent you are or how much you love your child or teen, sometimes they may find it easier to open up to someone outside of the family circle. If you feel that your child needs therapy, that does not mean you’ve failed as a parent. In fact, it means you are a caring parent, because you recognize their need and are trying to get them help.
