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.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in working with children and adolescents navigating emotional, behavioral, and social challenges. This can include anxiety, mood changes, school difficulties, peer relationships, family stress, and life transitions. My approach is warm, developmentally appropriate, and strengths-based, helping young people feel safe expressing themselves while building skills for emotional regulation, communication, and problem-solving. I incorporate play-based and creative techniques with younger children, and a more collaborative, insight-oriented approach with teens. I also work closely with parents and caregivers to support consistency, strengthen relationships, and create a more supportive home environment. My goal is to help children and adolescents feel more confident, understood, and equipped to handle life’s challenges.
