Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
I help adolescents navigate a wide range of challenges, including low self-esteem, bullying, depression, anxiety, social struggles, academic pressure, and relationship issues. While teletherapy may not be ideal for very young children, it can be highly effective for teens—and I continue to enjoy working with them in this format. My experience includes many years in a residential treatment setting for adolescents, which gave me deep insight into the unique pressures they face. I also bring advanced training in family therapy, which informs my work by considering each teen not just as an individual, but as part of a larger family system. This approach helps foster lasting change by improving communication, strengthening relationships, and supporting the whole family.

What are Child Behavior Problems?
Many disorders are diagnosed during childhood. In addition to the distress and impaired functioning experienced by adults, children are at particular risk of developing comorbid disorders during critical periods of development. Many aspects of behavior, including effective social skills, organizational skills, self-schema, and body image are largely established at early ages of development.
Therefore, it is of great importance that accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment occur as soon as possible. In addition, it is always important to ensure that parents and other family members are involved as they often experience anxiety and other aversive experiences out of their concern for the behaviorally challenged child.
