Chicago, Illinois therapist: Best Therapies, Inc., therapist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Best Therapies, Inc.

Therapist
As adults, we underestimate the level of stress our young ones go through daily. Whether it’s overwhelming amounts of schoolwork, bullies that make them anxious or depressed in their academic environment, or a broken home that leaves them feeling fearful or unloved, children experience traumatic emotions just as adults do. Unlike adults, children and teens may not have the tools, outlet, or language skills to voice their troubles or break down what they’re feeling. That’s where child counseling comes in. Our experienced specialists work with children and teens dealing with a mental illness or emotional strain to help them regain confidence and happiness.

As a marriage and family therapist, I have received specialized training in working with children and adolescents. My additional work and training as a nanny has given me insight and practice in the day-to-day experience of child life and parenting. I personally started therapy as a child, so I take care to attune to the unique challenges and opportunities kids & teens face in therapy.

Chicago, Illinois therapist: Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon, psychologist
Child or Adolescent Issues

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon

Psychologist, PsyD
Adolescence is the first time a person is asked to assemble a self in real time, in public, with an audience that is merciless. The pressure is not imagined. The stakes are not small. What looks from the outside like defiance or withdrawal or apathy is almost always a person in the middle of figuring out which parts of themselves are allowed to exist. I work with adolescents not by trying to correct their behavior but by taking seriously the problem they are trying to solve.
