Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Therapy for child and adolescent issues, also called child therapy or teenage therapy, is a specialized form of counseling designed to satisfy children and adolescents' unique emotional, developmental, and behavioral requirements. Child and adolescent therapists are trained to work with young clients and provide a secure and supportive environment for them to express themselves, investigate their emotions, and overcome obstacles.
Child and adolescent therapy is highly individualized, with approaches varying according to the child's age, developmental level, and specific requirements. Therapists can employ techniques to engage juvenile clients and promote their emotional health and growth.
If you are concerned about the emotional health or behavior of a child or adolescent, a qualified child and adolescent therapist or counselor can provide valuable support and guidance for the child and his or her family.

Columbus, Georgia is home to Fort Benning — one of the US Army's largest installations and the home of the Army Infantry — creating a therapy community substantially shaped by the needs of soldiers, veterans, and military families dealing with combat trauma, moral injury, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of service life. The city's African American population comprises the largest share of the civilian community, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity and intergenerational resilience alongside the predominantly military therapy demand are an important part of the local landscape. Martin Army Community Hospital serves the military population, while Piedmont Columbus Regional provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Columbus shares some of its therapy ecosystem with Phenix City, Alabama directly across the Chattahoochee River, giving the metro a bi-state character.
