Child or Adolescent Issues
Ellen S Leventhal
Marriage and Family Therapist, MEd, MA, LMFT
Psychotherapy helps children and adolescents in a variety of ways. They receive emotional support, resolve conflicts with people, understand feelings and problems, and try out new solutions to old problems. Goals for therapy may be specific (change in behavior, improved relations with friends or family), or more general (less anxiety, better self-esteem). The length of psychotherapy depends on the complexity and severity of problems.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
For over thirty years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children and adolescents to address challenges such as anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, social anxiety, emotional regulation, depression, and academic or everyday pressures. With younger children, I work closely with parents, offering guidance and practical strategies that build resilience, connection, and emotional growth. With teens, I provide a safe, supportive space to explore their experiences and develop effective tools to manage challenges with greater confidence, agency and self-assurance.

Worcester is one of New England's most diverse cities and home to a cluster of colleges and universities — including Clark University, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, and UMass Chan Medical School — that together generate significant student mental health demand and a well-developed clinical training ecosystem. The city's large Latino, Vietnamese, and African American populations create consistent demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists, and Worcester has been an important destination for refugee resettlement from Southeast Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Central America. UMass Memorial Medical Center provides major institutional mental health resources, while the city's university ecosystem supplies important clinical training. Worcester's working-class character and lower cost of living relative to Boston make private therapy more financially accessible, though therapist density remains lower than in the Boston metro.
