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.

Lindsey O'Brennan
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I've been working pre-teens and adolescents for over 15 years in and outside of schools. I specialize in helping high achieving teens - like those taking AP and IB classes, high school athletes, and performers - learn coping strategies to handle the waves of stress, anxiety, and overwhelm that come from chasing after their big dreams. I actively work with my teen clients on time management strategies, help seeking, positive thinking, and goal achievement. I also help my teen clients develop a healthy sense of identity and self-expression.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Tammy Morath, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-S
Does your child have trouble dealing with their emotions? Is their behavior sometimes disruptive to your home life? Have they experienced sudden loss or trauma?
As they grow, children and adolescents develop social skills and emotional intelligence. This awareness helps them to develop into healthy, happy, and successful individuals. But some children have trouble processing their emotions and this often leads to behavior that negatively impacts their school life, home life and overall well-being.
Therapy offers children and adolescents a safe space to work through their thoughts and emotions. With the help of a specialized therapist, children can resolve problems, modify behaviors, and make positive and lasting changes.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
In my practice, I adopt a holistic approach to addressing the unique challenges faced by children and adolescents. By integrating cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral techniques, and parent management training, I ensure that each intervention is grounded in evidence-based practices. Working closely with children and teens, I help them identify and challenge the negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be contributing to their difficulties, empowering them to make positive changes in their lives.

Young children treatment interventions very often involve parents and caretakers at some point. Disruptive Behavior Problems are most prevalent, specifically Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD), however fear, anxiety social issues also rank highly. In my practice, I use behavior therapy (parent management training), both individual and group cognitive behavioral therapy as well as multisystemic therapy. MST is goal-oriented and focuses on helping the caregivers manage and nurture their challenging children more effectively. As your child's therapist I become intimately involved in every aspect of their life and social network including peers, school and family.
